This is a rarely-seen Hanson Brothers autographed Johnstown Chiefs 8" x 10" photo! The Hanson Brothers were legendary characters in the 1977 hockey comedy movie "Slap Shot". The characters are based on the Carlson brothers, who were actual hockey players. Two of them starred in the film. The movie, which stars Paul Newman, was written by Nancy Dowd. The story was based in part upon the experiences of her brother, Ned Dowd (who appears in the film as notorious hockey player Ogie Ogelthorpe), when he played for the North American Hockey League club in Pennsylvania called the Johnstown Jets. The Hanson Brothers provide several humorous moments in the film and are best remembered for starting fights, interrupting the coach in the locker room during pre-game speeches with overzealous shouting, wearing extremely thick glasses, and playing with toy cars and trucks in their hotel room, although the brothers ranged in age from 18 to 20. In the film, The Hansons are brought in by the front office as part of an inexpensive deal, & also as enforcers for the fledgling Charlestown Chiefs during their 1976 (and final) season in the Federal League. They are in order of their numbers: Jack Hanson (portrayed by David Hanson) – #16 Left Wing, age 19 Steve Hanson (portrayed by Steve Carlson) – #17 Center, age 20 Jeff Hanson (portrayed by Jeff Carlson) – #18 Right Wing, age 18 The photo is autographed by David, Steve and Jeff!
