Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction June 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/27/2023
An eyebrow raising piece is on the auction block here, with 1979-80 O-Pee-Chee wax packs the first of the 20-cent era and the company’s 396-card set considered a landmark issue due to the inclusion of Wayne Gretzky’s rookie card. And talk about a gorgeous specimen to feast your eyes on, with PSA awarding the pack an alluring mark of MINT 9. Showing the card of an unidentifiable player through the wrapper on the reverse along with some spotting/foxing that is also present with the OPC card locker send away offer, a high grade Gretzky RC is possibly one of the thirteen (13) other cards on the inside that are joined on the by a piece of bubble gum. With no other issues to the pack to make note of, the last cards from the NHL playing days of Gordie Howe and Bobby Hull, a second-year Mike Bossy card and an Edmonton Oilers team logo/checklist card are other notables among OPC’s popular blue-bordered cards. Unopened pack aficionados will want to seriously consider this wondrous opportunity, with the PSA holder housing the tempting offering showing some scratches and scuffs over both sides worth mentioning.
