Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Fall 2022
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/20/2022
Opportunities to add to your unopened wax pack collection are once again available this time around, with packs from Wayne Gretzky's rookie card year carrying elevated appeal for obvious reasons. This 1979-80 Topps example was confirmed as never having been opened, with the GAI firm rendering a NM+ 7.5 verdict in regards to the pack's condition. Gretzky's supporting cast in Topps' 264-card set include Hall of Famers Howe, Hull, Bossy, Dryden and Lafleur, with ten cards and a helmet sticker accompanied by a stick of bubble gum in each pack. We spot a white speck at each corner here, with a little split at the upper left corner also to note. The back of the wrapper features an offer to send away for NHL team-themed cartoon patches. Oh, to be able to go back in time and order patches! Just kidding - oh, to go back and buy packs and discover Gretzk rookies! The GAI holder has been preserved in NM condition.
