Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2022

Cards in Beckett holders that feature "10 PRISTINE" on their gold-on-black labels do not land on our doorstep often, with a tempting example starring Toronto Maple Leafs' scoring star Auston Matthews doing just that recently and thus offering a marvelous opportunity here. Matthews' 2016-17 Upper Deck Canvas card, from the same season as his official rookie cards, carries a book value, as of this writing, that approaches four figures in raw form - it'll be interesting to see how the market will determine the current worth of an encapsulated example that was deemed worthy of pristine status. This card #C211 scored perfect 10s in regards to centering, corners, edges and surface. Less than 10% of similar Matthews cards submitted to Beckett in recent years have merited the coveted mark. The back recalls Auston's unparalleled NHL start when he popped-in four goals in his first regular season game, something that no one in league history had ever done. We do not detect any scratches/scuffs to the Beckett holder - you are going to love holding it and adding the elite specimen to your portfolio.
