Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Spring 2021

The popularity of and demand for Wayne Gretzky's Topps rookie card has followed that of its O-Pee-Chee counterpart, with an inviting example of card #18 available here. We would say that the corners and edges appear to have the characteristics of a slightly higher grade and surmise that it is a small surface bubble in the cardboard, spotted in Wayne's right sock, just below the top white stripe, that the PSA grader also observed, that contributed to the final verdict; NM 7. Picturing Gretzky in his first professional season and shortly after his trade from Indianapolis to Edmonton, the splendid encapsulated collectible will be a fine addition or upgrade or complement to your Topps/O-Pee-Chee/Gretzky/RC stash. With regards to the older PSA holder, a horizontal scratch in the boards to the left of Wayne is more obvious that some light diagonal scratches, the latter visible when the holder is tilted at a certain angle.
