Hockey Great Maurice "Rocket " Richard

Red Glare, 1956 (Maurice Richard)

Edition size 50, archival pigment inkjet print, image 16" x 20"

There was once no glare in hockey quite so menacing as that of Maurice "Rocket" Richard barreling in on a goaltender. In this magnificent 1955 SPORT magazine shot, taken for a cover article, the intensity is visible in his eyes even though the shot was taken following a Montreal Canadiens' practice. The image is hand printed from the original 4" by 5" transparency.
