Autographed Toronto Maple Leafs Hockey Puck

This item is an official NHL regulation-sized hockey puck made of black vulcanized rubber, featuring the branding of the Toronto Maple Leafs. The puck is encased in a clear circular acrylic protective display case, which appears to be in good condition with minor surface scuffing common to plastic storage. A white circular decal is adhered to the face of the puck, featuring red text that reads 'A Tradition Since 1917' and a stylized 'TML' logo. Centered prominently over this decal is a large, hand-signed autograph in thick black permanent marker. The autograph features fluid strokes and appears to belong to a professional athlete associated with the franchise. The signature is bold and has not faded, suggesting it has been kept out of direct sunlight. While the specific player signature requires secondary authentication for valuation, the overall presentation is clean. There are no visible chips or significant rubber rot on the puck itself. This piece represents a piece of modern sports memorabilia, likely dating from the 1990s to the present day based on the logo style and decal design. The craftsmanship of the puck meets standard NHL requirements, and the addition of the protective case indicates it was intended for collection and long-term preservation.
