Regarded as one of the most iconic trading cards, Wayne Gretzky’s #18 rookie card from the 1979-80 O-Pee-Chee and Topps sets is a must-have for hockey card collectors of all ages. This is one of the hottest cards in the hobby today. For 40 years, generations of collectors have coveted Gretzky’s rookie card and it remains by far the most-desired hockey card of the 1980s. There was no telling at the time that The Great One would accomplish so much in the game and this card has remained consistently popular. Offered here, we present this copy of "The Great One's" first-year cardboard that has been inspected and slabbed by Becket''s vintage division, who have deemed the card worthy of a VG-EX+ 4.5 designation. Displaying off-center from left-to-right as well as top-to-bottom, the card retains excellent colours over the front and a clean reverse while wear is observed at all four (4) corners and the edges. Sure to be a welcome addition to your all-important collection, don't miss out on this one!
