WINGS OF GLORY: LIMITED EDITION RED WINGS LITHOGRAPH RAFFLE
An authenticated, limited-edition lithograph signed by Gordie Howe, Ted Lindsay, Scotty Bowman, and Red Wings legends. One of only 65 ever available to collectors. Valued at $7,500 minimum. Available now at United Way of Marquette County.
The United Way of Marquette County is proud to offer an extraordinary opportunity for Red Wings fans and sports memorabilia collectors: a limited-edition “Wings of Glory” lithograph, one of only 100 ever printed and just 65 made available to the public. This museum-quality piece, valued at a minimum of $7,500 by the professional framer for the Detroit Red Wings, Detroit Pistons, and numerous high-profile sports organizations, represents more than just artwork—it’s a tangible connection to the legends who built hockey’s most storied franchise.
Commissioned by a Legend, Created by a Master
“Wings of Glory” was commissioned by Hockey Hall of Famer Dino Ciccarelli and the Detroit Red Wings Alumni Association specifically for the 2013 Maple Leafs vs. Red Wings Alumni Showdown. Artist Ed LaPere masterfully captured the spirit of that historic event, creating renderings of every participating player in stunning detail.
This isn’t a mass-produced poster—it’s a legitimate limited-edition lithograph, a fine art printing technique that ensures exceptional quality and longevity. Each piece is individually numbered as part of the exclusive 100-print run.
Signed by Hockey Royalty
What elevates this lithograph from remarkable to extraordinary is the collection of signatures it bears. Each participating player from the 2013 Alumni Showdown has personally signed this piece, and every one was selected for either their Hockey Hall of Fame status or their name being engraved on the Stanley Cup as a Detroit Red Wing.
- Gordie Howe - Mr. Hockey himself
- Alex Delvecchio - Red Wings legend and Hall of Famer
- Ted Lindsay - Terrible Ted and hockey pioneer
- Scotty Bowman - The winningest coach in NHL history
- Mike Ilitch - The beloved Red Wings owner
- Jimmy Devellano - Architect of championship teams
- Ken Holland - Hall of Fame general manager
- Plus all active participants in the 2013 Alumni Showdown
This collection of autographs represents decades of Detroit hockey excellence, multiple Stanley Cups, and countless Hockey Hall of Fame inductions.

Authenticated and Professionally Valued
Your investment is protected with a certificate of authenticity from Hockeytown Authentics, the official authentication service of the Detroit Red Wings organization. This documentation ensures the legitimacy of every signature and the provenance of the piece. The lithograph has been professionally appraised at a minimum value of $7,500 by the trusted framing expert who serves the Detroit Red Wings, Detroit Pistons, and many other elite sports organizations. Given the limited availability (only 65 of these were ever offered to collectors), the inclusion of signatures from legends who have since passed, and the impeccable authentication, this piece represents both a treasured collectible and a sound investment.
