From the dawning of an era that would see Wayne Gretzky rack up record upon record while leading the Edmonton Oilers to multiple Stanley Cup triumphs comes his cherished O-Pee-Chee rookie card, prompting a look back at his wizardry. Four 200-plus point seasons, (when the previous record was Esposito’s 152), a 92-goal campaign (shattering Phil's record of 76), 50 goals in 39(!) games and so many other, until that time, unheard of numbers propelled Wayne's coveted rookie card to always-in-demand status, with collectors from all segments of the hobby becoming aware in recent times of the importance of The Great One's RC. Found here in raw ungraded form, this copy of Wayne's coveted Topps brand rookie card, found in their set at #18 on the checklist, presents in the condition range of FR to G after inspection, hampered by multiple light but large creases that are observed throughout the coveted cardboard offering, along with corner wear all the way around. Found to be retaining good colours and overall pleasing centering that still makes this copy one that will certainly be desired, those looking to make their collections a little "greater" while possibly on a budget need to look no further than the one being offered here. Don't miss out on this one!
