Does anyone have information on this hockey Cinderella of Jean Beliveau? It is currently on eBay here: www.ebay.com/itm/321607883722This one is of Jean Beliveau, but there are many others available. Oddly, they come from Australia.

Oddly, they come from Australia. Opinion: Someone has found a cheap printing press and a perforator. A plethora of images on perf paper has arrived, some in Euro currency, some in GBP All common (popular) themes Peter Brock (aust motor racing legend) Ice hockey champions Secretariat (printed "local Post") Auto Icons (Rambler Marlin) Barry Sheene (UK motorcycle legend) Pet shop Boys (music legends) Stevie Ray Vaughn's guitar At $8 a pop, someone has learnt how to print money.

National Hockey league local post ? I don't think so ! Sadly, the Cinderella world is inundated with home-grown labels and as Rod stated, "someone has learned to print money". Bogus locals, modern fantasy stuff from non-existent places and all just to make a quick buck off gullible collectors. Sometimes, searching for decent Cinderellas isn't much fun.

There are obvious copyright infringements in these labels too.

I wonder if they could be a Fameface production ??!! The stuff I have seen from them thus far are inscribed on the labels borders so maybe not, but then......

I shouldn't think so Lb1, fameface always had their logo imprinted. I have a instinct these are from GB.
A lot of his (The Vendors) images appear to be from the US Archives (Library of congress) and he/she appears to be selling them as photos. Again around the $9 a shot mark. I lost count at 200 old images of US and Australian that was for sale.
