Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Fall 2022
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/20/2022
Just two conventional hockey card sets were issued during the 1937-38 season, with O-Pee-Chee making it a five-year run with its (48-card) Series "E" featuring cards numbered 133 to 180. Just two examples of card #149, picturing Montreal Canadiens' goalie Wilf Cude, have ever scored higher than this rather riveting specimen that merited a mark of EX-MT 6. With pleasing near-perfect centering and the lack of noticeable toning, the card displays marvelously, with a light ding to the bottom right corner to report, along with miniscule touches to the other corners. Just 31 other similar cards have ever been assessed by PSA, with this one joined by four other 6s on the Cude "line" of the PSA Population Report. A definite candidate for an important pre-war encapsulated shrine, with a few light scratches to the holder also to mention.
