Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Spring 2021

For those fond of Wayne Gretzky, PSA grading and the number "6", this EX-MT 6 example of Wayne's desirable 1979-80 O-Pee-Chee rookie card might be the one for you. A slightly dinged bottom right corner and a lightly touched top left corner are lesser than the sharp bottom left corner and look to be the grade-lowering flaws, with The Great One's image obviously right of center. It is thought by some that the two thin blue lines on the back, through the puck and skate below the cartoon, are an indication of O-Pee-Chee's first print run, while others dispel that notion. We surmise that Gretzky aficionados, along with others, might like one of each version. Wayne scored 51 times the season that pack-busters had a chance to discover cards like this....and was well on his way to helping the Oilers become hockey's most exciting team. A light scuff to the back of the PSA holder is notable but we do not detect any scratches on the front.
