Description: Here we have a vintage Toledo Buckeyes hockey puck.An all painted on, not a sticker, Cooper puck.Made in Czechoslovakia.The puck is still new, and has been in storage for many years.There is some chipping and wear on the back side of the puck, as can be seen in the picture, from being stored away in a box, mixed in with many other pucks.Toledo has a long lineage of hockey history, and the Buckeyes would be a small blip in that history, if not for them having possibly the most unique hockey logo you'll ever see. The Toledo Mercury's were a mainstay in the city playing in the IHL from 1947-1962. However, for one season they took a break from the IHL and calling themselves the Mercury's. They rebranded as the Toledo Buckeyes for 1949-50 and joined the EHL (at the time the EAHL). The Buckeye name came from their new sponsor, the Buckeye Brewing Company based in the city, and they also got a new logo featuring a waiter delivering beer. The logo is perfectly designed for the period.After one year the Buckeyes re-joined the IHL and changed back to the Mercury's. They would win the IHL title each of the next two seasons, so the move worked out perfectly.Thanks for looking and good luck !
