Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction October 2016
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/9/2016
Three choice Gretzky items are available here, from the genesis of his amazing career. We have a rookie card, a 1978 Team Canada photo and a copy of The Hockey News from the fall of 1978 profiling Wayne as a WHA rookie. The rookie card is an O-PEE-CHEE example, and despite its technical grade of roughly fair to good, the card presents much nicer. A large horizontal crease cuts across the center of the card, along with a few others. There is also some edge and surface wear, with each corner exhibiting substantial dings, while the reverse remains clean. The Team Canada photo is situated beneath a matte, with total dimensions of 12” x 14”. The players are listed below, with the photo loose along the back. The piece added with the listed names is creased in a few spots, and the matte shows toning while the photo remains in beautiful condition. Lastly, The Hockey News copy hails from October 27th 1978, and it features a youthful on-ice Wayne, resplendent in his Indianapolis Racers jersey. At 12” x 15”, the paper exhibits a cover tear along with edge/surface wear and toning.
