Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2020

We’ve handled dozens of Wayne Gretzky rookie cards and 1979-80 O-Pee-Chee sets but do not recollect anything like this rather fascinating assembly. It’s one thing to have a Gretzky RC with four smooth edges (the one here recently merited a mark of NM 7 at PSA), but to have almost all accompanying cards with four smooth edges is a very infrequent occurrence. There are minimal exceptions, with over 300 examples NM-or-better in our esteem. Among the keys, Howe and the Oilers logo/team checklist are NM, with Hull appearing at least NM-MT. Now, there are marked centering issues, with dozens of images right of center. Checklists/team checklists are unmarked with checklist 346 one of ten creased cards. The shrewd high bidder will surely enjoy sifting through this first-rate set.
The second-year Bossy is “only” EX-MT, with 261-Nordiques TC and 396-Sjoberg RC creased notables and the Dryden card a good example of the aforementioned intermittent centering issues.
