An enticing 1979-80 O-Pee-Chee Wayne Gretzky rookie card is offered here and is just shy of MINT in the eyes KSA, the grading firm's 8.5 NMM+ assessment appearing on the label. A white speck at the bottom left corner and another along the bottom edge nearby are detected, with the top right corner not perfectly sharp. Those old enough to have observed The Great One in his prolific heyday should consider themselves fortunate; what Wayne accomplished on sheets of ice around the NHL and in international competition, and the fashion in which he did it is difficult to describe to the younger generation. Ultimately, it is what has led to famous card #18 being forever popular and in demand. A high grade rookie card of the phenom from Brantford, Ontario awaits your important encapsulated collection. Light scratches and two light scuffs to the front of the KSA holder are to be aware of.
Addendum; there is a faint black diagonal mark on the lower left corner of the card, it is unclear if it is a printing defect or an actual mark but KSA most likely omitted to consider it when giving a grade of 8.5 NMM+ to the card.
