Description: Red Kelly (1927–2019) was a legendary Canadian hockey player, widely regarded as one of the most versatile and skilled defensemen in NHL history. Playing for the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs, Kelly won eight Stanley Cups over his 20-year career (1951–1970). Known for his smooth skating, exceptional playmaking ability, and strong two-way game, he was one of the first defensemen to excel in offensive roles, often contributing to the attack as much as he did on defense. Kelly was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1969 and remains a beloved figure in both Detroit and Toronto for his leadership and contributions to the game. The 1952 Parkhurst hockey set is one of the most iconic and sought-after vintage hockey card sets in the collecting world. Comprising 105 cards, it was produced by the Parkhurst company in Canada and features a stellar lineup of NHL stars from the early 1950s. The set includes legendary players such as Maurice "Rocket" Richard, Gordie Howe, and Jean Béliveau, making it a key piece for collectors and hockey history enthusiasts alike. Known for its vibrant, action-packed artwork and high-quality production, the 1952 Parkhurst set is highly prized for its rare and condition-sensitive cards, particularly the highly coveted "high numbers" series. It remains a cornerstone of vintage hockey card collecting, reflecting the game's golden era. This image was used to create Red Kelly's 1952-53 Parkhurst Hockey card. Card pictured not included.
