1956 Maple Leaf Gardens 25th Anniversary Program

I picked this up recently, a program that I've been after for quite a while. It was issued at Maple Leaf Gardens in 1956 to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the grand building. The magazine is chock full of stories about the history of the Gardens and the Maple Leafs.
Fantastic drawing of Maple Leaf kingpin Conn Smythe.

The story of the longest overtime game in Maple Leafs history, a mark that still stands.


Nice photo of Foster Hewitt's original broadcast gondola.



The Queen!
