For Immediate Release:

May 17, 2007 Vancouver BC- In Celebration of the Memorial Cup, the 
British Columbia Sports Hall of Fame and Museum is pleased to display 
the Hockey Dream Card Collection from May 18th through May 31st.

Ever seen a Gordie Howe rookie card? How about Wayne Gretzky? Or Mario 
Lemieux?

Well now you can . . . at the BC Sports Hall of Fame and Museum! The 
Dream Hockey Card Collection contains every hockey card published in the 
modern era, 1951 to 1994. Due to space requirements a small portion of 
this valuable, unique collection will be on display, so hockey fans can 
check out over 2,500 original hockey cards from 1951-1975.

During their visit to the Hall of Fame hockey fans can also test their 
slap shot in our sport simulator, see a Vancouver Canucks jersey from 
the 1940s, see a game worn Wayne Gretzky Edmonton Oiler's jersey and . . 
. get inspired by the best athletes and teams in BC.

The BC Sports Hall of Fame and Museum honours British Columbia’s teams, 
builders, athletes, pioneers, and media through 20,000 square feet of 
exciting exhibits. By ‘Honouring the Past and Inspiring the Future’, the 
Hall of Fame shares with its visitors the vision of those who achieved 
their dreams through dedication, talent, and hard work. Visit the BC
