Shocking the hockey world with his unmatched scoring ability, Wayne Gretzky set the NHL record book on fire during the 1981-82 season - scoring 50 goals IN ONLY 39 games, something previously seen as impossible. Dumbfounding fans and officials even further, Wayne would finish the memorable season with 212 points and 92 goals - both records (Gretzky surpassed his 212 points with 215 in 1985-86). We offer a ticket stub from Gretzky's historic "50 Goals in 39 Games" milestone which took place on Dec 30, 1981, vs Philadelphia, graded PR 1 (MK) by PSA. The stub has "Game #19" along with the seating designation and original $12.00 purchase price (just over $41.00 in 2024 dollars), with "#99 Scores 50 Goals in 39 Games" handwritten on the reverse. There are a number of creases to the stub, explaining the assigned grade. Currently, only 21 stubs from the historic match have ever been graded by PSA. As a point of reference, we previously sold a stub from this match graded GOOD 2 along with a program for just over $4,000.00 including the buyer's premium. Wayne would score five goals in the match to reach his 50th, with the Flyers defeated 7-5.
