Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Spring 2025
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 4/29/2025
Two of hockey’s all-time greatest talents, Mario Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky, are pictured on this wax box of 1988-89 O-Pee-Chee cards, with the image of Wayne on a side panel curiously not the one that appeared on his OPC card that season but rather his Topps version (Gretz holding up his new L.A. Kings jersey). Inside are 48 (7-card) packs, with possible rookie cards of Brett Hull and Brendan Shanahan the most important/valuable and bolstering the 264-card set’s popularity over the years. The box has been inspected, recently certified and sealed by Baseball Card Exchange, with the firm’s shrink-wrap featuring an identifying sticker and accompanying hologram on the bottom with "Unopened Wax Box Tape Intact". The original tape to the box lid is intact as mentioned, with light wear overall, with individual creases to the box lid, underside and left panel, with a price tag also affixed to the left panel.
