Showcasing some of the best names to begin their careers in the decade of the 1980s who would go on to influence the game of hockey as part of the NHL well into the 2000's, offered here is this collection of nine (9) O-Pee-Chee and Topps hockey rookie cards that date between 1984-85 and 1988-89 that have been graded by either PSA or KSA and include names such as Yzerman, Hull, Turgeon and Neely. Starting with the meat of the group, a total of six (6) 1984-85 first-year cardboard examples of Detroit Red Wings legend and 2009 HHOF inductee are included with the collection with all but one being O-Pee-Chee made examples. Including a pair a PSA graded offerings in the form of a NM 7 (O-Pee-Chee) and an EX-MT 6 (Topps), the rest of the Steve-Y's have all been inspected and slabbed by KSA, with the quartet of O-Pee-Chee specimens including grades of NM 7, ENM+ 6.5, ENM 6 and EX 5. For the rest of the lot, included is a copy of Cam Neely's 1984-85 O-Pee-Chee RC that has earned a mark of NMM+ 8.5 from KSA, and 1988-89 O-Pee-Chee rookies of both Brett Hull and Pierre Turgeon that have both received grades of NM-MT 8. All housed in holders that remain in excellent condition, just light scratches/scuffs are observed.
It must be noted that the grading standards followed by KSA may not correspond to those currently employed by PSA, BGS or SGC. The outcome of an attempted cross-over of this piece through any of those services, then, would be uncertain and cannot be guaranteed.
