If you're a big minor league hockey or Houston Apollos fan, then check this out! It is a GENUINE, ORIGINAL wooden Sherwood game used stick which came directly from Alec Tidey (sometimes known as Alex Tidey) that was given to my late brother Dave. It has definite use and wear, with original black tape on the butt end and the blade. (A couple wraps of tape on the blade is coming loose.) This terrific stick is autographed on the shaft by 27 members of the 1979-80 Houston Apollos, 26 players plus Coach Al Rollins.
As you can see from the accompanying pictures, it is autographed by the following (

). There is also very, very light remnants of one more signature in the lacquered part of the shaft where it meets the blade, yet it's probably impossible to make that one out.
My late brother a) covered the WHA Houston Aeros, led by Gordie Howe and his sons Mark and Marty, for several local radio stations, including the team's flagship, KTRH, and b) was the in-house arena PA announcer at Aeros games when the team played in The Summit, and c) was the play by play announcer for the Central Hockey League Houston Apollos. He obtained all of the signatures on this stick in person!
Locating another one of these could be EXTREMELY tough!
