Summary:
"A one-of-a-kind collection and some never-before-seen photographs from the official photographer of the wild and unforgettable WHA. On October 12, 1972, legendary Boston sports photographer,
Steve
Babineau
, was in attendance for the debut of the New England Whalers. They were taking on the Philadelphia Blazers at the old Boston Garden -- and Babs was shooting the action. Fifty years later, he’s still photographing big-league sports events -- but this lovingly curated collection documents both his earliest published (and unseen) works and the wild emergence of the colorful, revolutionary, wild, and unforgettable WHA. In an era when rolls of film still had to be changed by hand and cameras were focused manually, when arena lighting was questionable and images had to be captured through the haze produced by smoking fans,
Babineau
captured it all: the timeless legends who were finally getting paid, the journeymen who finally got a shot at the pros, the 17-year-old who would go on to rewrite record books, the brawls and goals, the glorious ’staches and flows, the highs and the lows...Behind the Lens: The World Hockey Association 50 Years Later has the Golden Jet and the Howes, the teams that seemed to change names and cities as often as some players changed wooden sticks, and even the true origin story of that Wayne Gretzky photo that’s become the million-dollar holy grail for sports card collectors."--Publisher.
