I bought a stick off Ebay from a guy in philly who had a Richards Rookie game used stick, it shows a ton of wear and was from the Gene Hart foundation auction. It was auto'd on the blade by Richie and is from the first half of his rookie year. I can tell by the colour of stick and type as he went through about 4 different colour combo's in his rookie season and he used this colour combo at the very start of his rookie year. I can't seem to photomatch it on Getty. Is there anywhere else I could go??? here is the link to the auction and some pictures of it.

As you can see there are some serious marks along the bottom half and a big gouge above the "R" on the bauer name...can't find this sucker on any of the early rookie getty images with those marks or I find the images aren't clear enough to make a positive I'd....

I would ask Vegaspuck for one. He has quite a few Richards game used and if he has anything from his rookie year he might have an idea. Also someone suggested to me a site called Checkoutmycards.com You can check out older cards to try and match it up that way. They have a zoom on the cards pictured and you can get a pretty good close up. Just check out 06-07 stuff since his rookie cards don't really have game action on them. Another nice site to photomatch is daylife.com Not sure how far back the pics go though. Good luck.
 
ask VP and there is other Richards collectors that can maybe point you to the right direction
 
I am the next largest Richards collector to VP on here and have tried to match it to any of my cards but to no avail. I will try the avenues listed above.

Thanks for the input guys.
 
Oh, one more thing you might be able to do is find a Flyers yearbook or media guide for 06-07. They might have some color pics in there that would match it up.
