Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction June 2017
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/21/2017
The first two cards of Joe Theisman's pro football career are among the highlights of this pair of Canadian Football League issues, with the 1971 red-bordered cards also featuring the rookie cards of Peter Dalla Riva, Tony Gabriel and Dave Cutler, while the likes of stars Ron Lancaster, George Reed, Angelo Mosca, Garney Henley, Tommy Joe Coffey and others also show up in both sets. The '71 Theisman is G-VG with no unsightly creases through the image of the Argonaut quarterback, although dinged corners resulted in small corner creases, to go along with edge/corner wear and a touch of soiling in the lower region. The '71 set features mostly VG, VG+ and VG-EX cards, with the average in the VG to VG+ range. The checklist card is (neatly) marked. The 1972 near set is missing a Pro Action card (#123) near the end and is almost entirely affected by scotch tape stains on the front; at the four corners of each card. Unfortunate, since cards are otherwise EX+, EX-MT and NM. A couple of exceptions, without the stains, are stars 7-Mosca and 8-Coffey, both at VG.
