This small logo Art Ross Tyer hockey puck is from 1942-1950. Besides his roles on the ice and off, one of Art Ross' biggest roles was that of inventor. He had brought goal nets to the game and was about to add a touch of innovation to the puck itself. Art Ross beveled the edges of the puck and molded a checker pattern on the edge to make the puck slide better and easier to control. He patented his innovation in 1940 and his Patent Number 2226516 would appear on NHL game pucks for the next 28 years. The puck was soon used along side the Spalding and by 1942, became the official NHL game puck.The puck and logo are in beautiful shape.
