Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Spring 2022
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 5/31/2022
Cards produced for the Canadian market back in the day and available here show very little handling or wear, with EX-MT-or-better examples appearing to dominate throughout the four assemblies, led chronologically by a 264-card set from 1977. Intermittent corner touches are observed, similar to a ’78 set of 242, with small percentages of sub-EX-MT entries present. Such is the case with a ’78 Eddie Murray RC (EX+) that exhibits a sometimes-seen diamond cut. The two earliest sets have been stored loose in card boxes over the years, (resulting in a slight curvature), with the other two placed in 9-pocket pages/binders and an Ozzie Smith rookie highlighting the 1979 roster (of 374). At EX-MT is the well-centered Ozzie RC, with some edge/border toning spotted amid the stars (Brett, Rose) and others. Ditto for a similar (374-card) gathering of ’80 cards, with usually immaculate, unblemished surfaces throughout the collection – you’ll enjoy zeroing-in on the NM-MT to MINT beauties. The Hall of Fame lineup consists of all-time greats Nolan Ryan, George Brett, Reggie Jackson, Pete Rose, Johnny Bench, Mike Schmidt, Robin Yount, Dave Winfield and Paul Molitor, with over 1200 total cards sure to provide enjoyment, along with multiple options.
