NHL "The Man Behind The Mask" (Jacques Plante) 'Promo' Comic Book
I have for sale the 1997 McDonalds/True North (Canadian Food Issue
Publication), NHL Promotional Comic Book "The Man Behind The Mask"
featuring
Hockey greats Jacques Plante, Andy Bathgate, and Hector "Toe" Blake.
Front inside page excerpt:
"When Jacques Plante, the goaltender for the Montreal Canadiens, put on a
face mask after being injured in a game against the New York Rangers on
November 1, 1959, a new era dawned in hockey. All goaltenders knew the
danger of facing booming shots without facial protection and when Plante
put on his mask after being injured by a shot from Andy Bathgate, the game
was forever changed."
"The historic hockey game between the Canadiens and the Rangers is vividly
depicted in this comic book, which shows a dramatization of the events of
that night. You'll see how Jacques Plante was injured and how his coach,
Toe Blake, tried to stop him from putting on the mask-until his star
goaltender reminded him of a promise he had once made."
The NHL "The Man Behind The Mask" (Jacques Plante) 'Promo' Comic Book is
