A low grade filler is the Wayne Gretzky rookie card here, with however 395 rather attractive cards accompanying it, the smooth edges of a high percentage of the cards striking the beholder - the blades must have just been changed at the O-Pee-Chee factory(!). The set is housed in nine-pocket pages, with some random pulls and the pulled star cards revealing sharp, little-handled cards. We would say NM-or-better examples dominate, with numerous NM-MT-and-better contributors to be discovered. Intermittent white corner specs are to report, but again, the smooth edges make for enjoyable perusing. As almost always, there are condition exceptions to note, with #1-Goal Leaders and #200-Lafleur among them and most checklists and team checklists (Oilers, Jets, Whalers) marked or with obvious creases. As usual, centering varies, with the key/star cards pictured below. As for the Gretzky rookie, it's Poor, with multiple creases, moisture staining, blue touch up and corner/edge wear. Also, it measures just a tad narrow, suggesting trimming.
