Ron Ellis was signed by the Toronto Maple Leafs and played junior hockey with the Toronto Marlboros of the Ontario Hockey Association from 1961-964.  He played on the team that won the Memorial Cup in 1964.  Ellis became a full-time Leaf in 1964-65, during his tenure he achieved remarkable milestones, including winning the Stanley Cup in 1967 and playing the iconic 1972 Summit Series against the Russian National team. This Ellis Alumni game used jersey is accented by the King Clancy memorial patch. It is in-fact a real regular season Leafs jersey that all the Alumni players used in the game. We are not sure of the year it was used but it has an authentic Clancy patch, fight strap and Ellis number 6 in marker written on the CCM tag on the inside collar. A couple material runs and snags to mention but for the most part, a clean jersey used by the Hall of Famer to rip around Maple Leaf Gardens. Ellis earned an unusual tribute in 1968 when former Leafs star Ace Bailey, then working as a timekeeper at Maple Leaf Gardens, declared that he admired Ellis so much, he wanted the team to give his retired #6 to Ellis.  Bailey's number had been retired following his career-ending injury in 1933. Ellis, who had been wearing #8, changed to #6 for the rest of his career, after which the number was re-retired. Ron Ellis played in the NHL for sixteen seasons all with the Toronto Maple Leafs. He won the Stanley Cup in 1967, the last time the Leafs hoisted the coveted trophy.  In his 1,034 contests he scored 332 goals and assisted on 308 others. On October 17, 2016, Ellis was inducted into the Ontario Sports Hall of Fame.
