Additionally, the prime dozen examples listed above are accompanied by a JSA Auction LOA.
Also included with the lot, is a group of eleven (11) cards from the 1975-76 set picturing men that would go on to be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame that includes Marcel Dionne, Serge Savard (signed on a Stanley Cup Quarter Finals highlights card), Yvon Cournoyer, Darryl Sittler (x2 - one signed over the reverse), Craig Patrick (x3), Glen Sather, Borje Salming and Lanny McDonald (signed on reverse).

Finally, the rest of the lot presents in the same condition range of VG-EX to EX or better with the odd exception with the autograph condition largely the same as what is seen in the rest of the set.
