Two of the greatest players to grace the ice of the National Hockey League at their respective position from the mid-1980s to the early-2000s, Mario Lemieux and Patrick Roy would combine to capture a total of six (6) Stanley Cups during their playing careers. Up for grabs here, is this 1980s and 1990s O-Pee-Chee, Topps and other brands hockey card collection of both Quebec born superstars. Starting with Mario, six (6) 1987-88 OPC offerings are included with three (3) being from the brand’s “mini’s” release. A pair of the pint-sized offerings are found to be in the condition range of EX to EX-MT while the other falls closer to EX. For the main line cards of the same year, one is around EX-MT, another is in the proximity of EX and the last find itself in the scope of FR to G due to creases. The last of the Lemieux notables features cards from 1988-89 with a pair of OPC’s, one of which is around the condition vicinity of FR to G showing creases and damage and the other closer to EX range, displaying a top right corner ding, as well as a quartet of Topps’ branded cardboard featuring the same image, with all around the scope of EX to EX-MT. For the noteworthy cardboard of “Saint Patrick”, a second year 1987-88 card is included that falls in the range of VG due to fading, light corner wear, foxing and a rough edge while the rest of the bundle features nine (9) third year 1988-89 specimens. For the OPC made offerings, totaling four (4), one is in the vicinity of EX-MT to NM, one is close to VG with corner wear and the last two falls towards G with both having been creased. For the Topps released cards of the same set, the best of the five (5) cards is around the condition range of G to VG with light surface damage while the other four (4) all find themselves around EX-MT to NM proximity. The bulk of the collection includes O-Pee-Chee, Topps and other brands examples from the late-1980s and early-1990s for both players including award winner offerings for both players as well. Most are seen as being in the EX to EX-MT condition range with some better examples also included along with a couple of exceptions.
