Featuring a 51-card checklist that includes players from the Toronto Maple Leafs, Detroit Red Wings and Montreal Canadiens, the 1961-62 Parkhurst set is often regarded by collectors as the release that signaled the beginning of the end for the company’s hockey releases. Found here in a complete assembly, the group is led by a quintet of freshly graded examples recently received back from PSA headquarters that includes the likes of HOFers Tim Horton (NM 7) Dave Keon (RC – EX+ 5.5), Gordie Howe (NM 7), Terry Sawchuk (EX-MT 6) and Jacques Plante (EX 5). For the rest of the cards, all found in raw form and helping build up the rest of the pleasingly consistent grade range set, those found to be in the scope of EX-MT total ten (10) and include examples for 9-Kelly, 10, 13 (RC), 14-Hillman, 15, 16-Stanley, 17-Armstrong, 24, 28-Litzenberger and 32 while the group thought of as being in the vicinity of EX to EX-MT includes thirty-three (33) examples (32 different cards – 1 extra copy of card #13) with the likes of 6-Stewart, 7-Shack, 8, 11-Baun, 12-Duff, 18-Brewer, 19 (RC), 21, 22 (RC), 23, 25-Delvecchio, 26-Ullman, 27-Gadsby, 29-Pronovost, 30, 33, 34, 36-Moore, 37-Langlois, 38, 39-Backstrom, 40, 41, 42, 43-Richard, 44 (RC), 45-Beliveau, 46, 47, 48-Talbot, 50-Provost and 51-Pronovost. Continuing on, the rest of the set includes VG-EX to EX cards of 4-Olmstead and 35-Geoffrion (residue/staining on the reverse), a GOOD to VG copy of Frank Mahovlich’s card #2 (small crease on front at his right side) and lastly, a FR to GOOD range copy of #3 picturing Johnny Bower that shows the “3” on the front having been coloured over in black along with the comic on the reverse.
