Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Spring 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 5/2/2023
The possibility of a high-grade rookie card bonanza from the 48 unopened (14-card) packs housed in this box of 1981-82 O-Pee-Chee cards should seduce hobbyists, which includes Hall-of-Famers Paul Coffey, Jari Kurri, Denis Savard, Peter Stastny, Larry Murphy, Glenn Anderson and Kevin Lowe - with each appearing on OPC cards for the first time - with Ciccarelli, Moog and Hunter rookies also notable, along with cards of young stars Gretzky, Messier and Bourque. A wonderful condition surviving example that shows just light surface wear to the lid, bottom and all four sides, light wear is also observed at the corners and edges with the folding display on the lid appearing to be mostly punched in but not fully. Freshly inspected and fully sealed in shrink wrap from unopened wax specialist BBCE, the company’s identifying labels and stickers appear affixed to the underside with the label stating “Unopened Wax Box (w/price stickers)”. Of note, a mistake is seen on the underside label as it lists the box as a “1981-80” example, not the 1981-82 that it is. A true treasure that is seldomly seen in this sort of condition; numerous opportunities await our lucky winning bidder with these packs containing 672 pack fresh cardboard specimens!
