Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction June 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/27/2023
Hailing from years that saw the Chicago Black Hawks win the only Stanley Cup of the Original Six era that wasn’t captured by Toronto, Montreal or Detroit and the first of three straight Stanley Cup championships for the Toronto Maple Leafs, offered here are these starter sets of 1960-61 and 1961-62 Parkhurst hockey cards. Totalling 75 cards in total, the 1960-61 release includes 36 of the 61 cards that make up the set while the 1961-62 set is found to include 39 of the set’s 51 cards and are the nicer offerings out of the two sets condition wise. Though appearing to have most of the cards in the 1961-62 set in a grade range of VG to VG-EX with the 1960-61’s worse off at mostly F to GD, the cards all fall to a low-grade range because of the fact that they all have glue or glue/paper residue on the reverses while some also show tape marks and small stains. Despite the low-grade offerings, the lot does include key cards of 1-Horton, 3-Bower, 5-Keon (RC), 20-Howe, 26-Ullman, 35-Geoffrion, 36-Moore, 42-Johnson, 43-Richard, 45-Beliveau and 49-Plante from the 1961-62 set and 2-Mahovlich, 26-Ullman, 31-Sawchuk, 45-M. Richard, 48-Harvey and 49-Beliveau from the 1960-61 set.
