My wife and I went garage saleing today. We were at this estate sale and I
noticed a couple of art prints for sale. They appeared to be signed by
Bobby Hull 1 Stanley Cup and the quickest to score more than 50 goals in 50
games and Jean Believeau 10 Stanley Cups and Hockey Hall of Fame(NHL). I
looked close and they were signed in pencil on both. I bought both for $40.
They are Signature Authentic Walter Burden art prints from 1995. I have
Hull but not Believeau so a pretty cool find! Has anyone else found graphs
at garage sales or flea markets?

Hey, great find. I'd imagine you got one hell of a deal! I'd think
Hull's graph alone would go for that on a lesser item. Jean's sig I
am not familiar with pricing, but for 10 cups, must be good! I am
guessing the artist signed them too which also adds value and it's
they're limited to low numbers even better.

I've never had the good fortune at a yard sale or garage sale, but
have been in junk shops/antique shops and the like and seen sigs. So
did you haggle? You might have gotten them lower!
