Unique Gordie Howe Auction Items

from Ben Cousins of CTV News,

More than 300 items once belonging to NHL legend Gordie Howe -- including autographed jerseys, images and sticks -- are now up for auction.

The bidding, conducted in partnership with the NHL and auction company Frozen Pond Inc., is meant to raise money for the Howe Foundation, which helps kids get involved in sports and assists women working in sports.

Items up for bid range from collectibles -- jerseys, sticks and trophies -- to the bizarre, such as autographed shorts, his wife Colleen’s bowling trophy and a firefighter’s helmet.
