Two of the greatest players to wear the black and gold uniform of the Pittsburgh Penguins with both serving as captain at times during their respective tenures in the Steel City, HOFers Mario Lemieux and Jaromir Jagr would both contribute to Pittsburgh's back-to-back Stanley Cup championships in 1991 and 1992. Offered here, is this collection of six (6) hockey cards featuring the legendary pairing. A mix of raw ungraded and graded examples, the group is paced by cards of Lemieux in the form of his 2003-04 BAP Ultimate Game-Used jersey/auto that is hand serial numbered "7/30" on the reverse in black marker and is graced over the front by a piece of material taken from a jersey worn by Lemieux and his crisp black ink autograph as well as his 1999-2000 Topps Stanley Cup Heroes autograph card that has a rainbow effect and is signed by Lemieux along the bottom with a crisp blue ink signature. Both remaining in the scope of EX-MT to NM or better condition in our opinions after inspection, the rest of the collection includes one (1) final memorabilia card of Lemieux from 2003-04 BAP Ultimate Memorabilia 4th Edition "Blades of Steel" subset that is numbered "11/20" and has had a piece of skate cut from a pair once worn by Mario embedded into the front. Housed in its original Beckett holder, the final three cards come in the form of graded offerings of Jagr's 1990-91 Upper Deck RC (Becket MINT 9 - subgrades of Centering 9.5, Corners 9, Edges 8.5 and Surface 9), Lemieux's 1988-89 Topps card (Beckett NM-MT 8 - subgrades of Centering 8.5, Corners 8.5, Edges 8.5 and Surface 7.5) and Lemieux's 1989-90 Topps Sticker Insert (Beckett NM-MT 8 - subgrades of Centering 8, Corners 9, Edges 9 and Surface 7.5). An excellent grouping for any Penguins collector, all the holders remain in good condition, showing just light wear via small scratches and scuffs.
