Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Spring 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 5/2/2023
Pictured with his Titan stick firmly in hand and wearing his WHA Edmonton Oilers uniform, Steve Babineau’s photograph of a young hockey phenom named Wayne Gretzky that is displayed on the front of every copy of “The Great Ones” 1979-80 rookie card would gain cultlike status over the years as the card became the hockey card hobby’s most famous offering. Up for grabs here and sure to pique the interest of many, is this copy of Gretzky’s 1979-80 Topps first-year cardboard that has recently been received back from PSA headquarters having earned an EX-MT 6 designation. Displaying pleasing centering, bright colours, smooth edges and a clean surface, light corner wear is observed at all four points as is a small mark on the back near the right edge (the top edge if the card is held horizontally). One of the hobby’s most desirable cards, don’t miss your chance at this one.
