Once thought of as inventory control for your set, checklists have become a high-grade scarcity for collectors and one of the top chases in every set that they exist in. Offered here, we present this collection of checklists from various Topps' hockey releases that date between 1968-69 and 1987-88. Featuring a total of ninety-seven (97) main series checklist offerings, the group is paced age wise by a group of five (5) 1972-73 offerings that includes two (2) copies of card #6 (one around GOOD condition with multiple light creases and the other in G to VG shape that is miscut), two (2) copies of card #19 (both around EX-MT to NM and one (1) of card #334 that is in the range of EX to EX-MT due to light corner fuzz. Also featuring five (5) inventory cards from 1973-74 that includes two (2) copies of card #116 (one around VG-EX to EX with 2 small surface bumps and the other in the vicinity of EX to EX-MT while being 60-40 off-center with a light surface one at the top border), two (2) copies of card #129 (one VG-EX to EX with a bottom right corner ding and one around EX to EX-MT with a tiny factory print surface mark at the bottom) and one (1) copy of card #263 that is seen as being EX to EX-MT with a small top right corner ding, the notables are rounded out by five (5) checklists from 1974-75 including a WHA series offering that is around EX-MT to NM, a lone copy of the NHL release's card #54 that is also EX-MT to NM, a copy of card #162 that is around EX-MT with a very tiny top right corner ding and two (2) copies of card #311 that are both around EX-MT to NM with one showcasing a very small surface bump that is worth mentioning for accuracy.
