Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Spring 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 5/2/2023
Perhaps the most recognizable and well-known hockey card in the entire hobby, and hockey’s version of the famed 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle RC, the 1979-80 O-Pee-Chee set featured the famous first-year cardboard of Wayne Gretzky as card #18 in the 396-card checklist. Offered here, having been freshly graded by PSA, is this copy of Wayne’s iconic 1979-80 OPC rookie card that has earned an EX 5 mark. Picturing the young phenom over the front with his Titan stick in hand and wearing his WHA uniform from the previous season, the card displays off-center left-to-right and from top-to-bottom as well with some corner, edge and surface wear also observed but is not obtrusive enough to bring the eye appeal down a great deal. Showing a few small “fisheyes” from the printing process over the front with a couple of thin blue print lines over the otherwise clean reverse, the PSA holder remains in beautiful condition. Sure to make your collection that much “greater”, don’t let this one pass you by!
