There are great faces galore in this magnificent 11 x 14" signed team photo of 1981 Team Canada -- Lafleur, Potvin, Trottier, Robinson, Bossy, Perrault, Dionne, Borque, Duguay, Gainey, Middleton -- but the kisser that stands out the most in an historical context is the one on the skinny kid with the frizzy hair standing 4th from the left in the top row. That would be one Wayne Gretzky, who in his 1st Canada Cup led everyone with 5 goals and 7 assists in Canada's 2nd-place finish to the Russians. Approx. 21 signatures in pen (apparently minus Gretzky), with the average grade 7-8/10. Photo is EX w/small pinholes on each corner and a 1" crack on the upper left side, unaffecting the team image.
