Having most of the pieces required to succeed upon joining the NHL from the WHA for the 1979-80 season, the Edmonton Oilers would continue building in their first couple of seasons and become the dominant force of the decade, winning four Stanley Cups and adding a 5th in 1990. Offered here, is this group of thirty (30) Oilers programs from 1979-80 to 1984-85. Showcasing most of the Oilers stars of the era on the covers such as Messier, Coffey, Moog, Fuhr and Kurri, oddly enough none of the covers exhibit the image of Gretzky but he is featured prominently on the inside of every issue. Included, we have eight (8) inaugural season 1979-80 examples, two (2) from 1980-81, two (2) from 1981-82, four (4) from 1982-83, ten (10) from 1983-84 including one signed on the cover by Rick Chartraw and finally, four (4) from 1984-85. The majority of the programs remain in beautiful condition with just regular handling wear and light surface/spine wear exhibited. All the included books remain complete and unscored on the interior as well.
Addendum; The eight (8) programs from 1979-80 are featuring Wayne Gretzky in the line-up in his rookie season and includes examples for his 5th and 9th NHL games.
