Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction December 2022
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 12/13/2022
A blast from the past indeed, with an image of Wayne Gretzky's rookie card appearing in metallic "chrome" form here and Wayne's actual rookie cards blasting to the stratosphere of popularity in the last couple of years. The offered O-Pee-Chee Chrome production was issued in 1998-99, some 20 years after the young phenom started his professional career with the Indianapolis Racers of the World Hockey Association and curiously features an English-only Topps-like back. Graded GEM MNT 9.5 by MNT, subgrades of; Corners 9.5, Edges 10, Surface 9.5 and Centering 9.5 are also found on the label with the card showing no obvious flaws to the naked eye. The holder remains in good condition, with light scratches seen.
*Please note that the grading standards followed by MNT may not correspond to those of PSA, BGS or SGC. The outcome of an attempted cross-over of this card through any of those services therefore would be uncertain and cannot be guaranteed.
