Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Winter 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/28/2023
Hailing from a decade that saw individual dynasties by the New York Islanders and Edmonton Oilers, each winning four Stanley Cups, the Montreal Canadiens and Calgary Flames also got in on the winning ways, each grabbing a cup of their own, the game was routinely dominated by Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux on a nightly basis. Hailing entirely from the 1980s, offered here is this collection of that decade’s various O-Pee-Chee and Topps hockey releases that is chalked full of the era’s rookies and stars. Largely in EX, EX-MT and EX-MT/NM condition with a few exceptions towards both ends of the grading spectrum, the oldest and perhaps best rookie offering is a 1980-81 Topps Ray Bourque card #140 that remains unscratched and is in the condition vicinity of EX-MT/NM. Other rookies presenting the same condition include Denis Savard (1981-82), Grant Fuhr (1982-83), Dale Hawerchuk (1982-83), Luc Robitaille (1987-88) and Brendan Shanahan (x2 – 1988-89). Other first year offerings just a tad worse off condition wise include Jari Kurri (1981-82), Peter Stastny (1981-82), Ron Francis (1982-83) and another Dale Hawerchuk (1982-83) with additional examples for names such as Anderson, Murphy, Ciccarelli, Broten, Larmer, Tocchet (x3), Hatcher (x2), Hextall (x2), Nieuwendyk (x4), Turgeon (x3), Sakic (x2) and Linden (x3) all also found and in a range of conditions with most around EX to EX-MT. Not to be forgotten, cards of established cards of legendary stars are also well represented in the collection including those of Mario Lemieux, Pelle Lindberg, Mark Messier and Paul Coffey. An excellent group for those looking to expand their collection into a different era, add on to what they already have or piece out to make some dough, the opportunities with these are endless and await our lucky winning bidder.
