Just when you least expect it, I hit you with more scrapbook. And once again, I’ll just mention that all of my previous scrapbook posts can be found over in “Categories” under “The Old Scrapbook.” I’ll also mention again, although you probably know this, that the pictures can be enlarged by clicking on them.

Phew, I was worried the previous set was the final set. I misunderstood its title when it ended with a newspaper item added much later.
Keep those hills singing the scrapbook theme.

I don’t understand the Beliveau comeback bid story. I can’t imagine he ever had to prove to anyone he was tops.

Dennis, that book is like a beautiful woman. I never get tired of looking at it.

That’s right, Christopher. When you look at his numbers http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid%5B%5D=297, there were very few years when he wasn’t at least close to a point a game.

Thanks Danno, that’s definitely quote of the day material.

You know, The Old Scrapbook should have it’s own display area in the Habs Hall of Fame with each page carefully preserved.

That’s a lovely idea, 31.

The hockey art is just breaking my heart. This is beautiful.
What I would love, and this is dreaming, is that the Habs release a special art book loaded with drawings and paintings of the team from over the last 100+ years. I just know they have some of this stuff in their archives. I’d buy the book in an instant.
I wish our team now (well, in the last 20 years or so) was half as great as this team was. Sigh.
