Coveted are 1953-54 Parkhurst rookie cards of hockey legend Jean Beliveau and they surely were right out of the big Parkie packs as the promising young superstar arrived on the NHL scene with much fanfare after starring in the Quebec Senior Hockey League for two seasons before "finally" joining the Canadiens. The experts referred to on the back of card #27 had it right, with part of the write-up reading, "Considered by pundits to be the "star of tomorrow". Big Jean's five goals in a three-game call-up the previous season are also mentioned. This example received a mark of 4 VGE from KSA, with corner wear a little more obvious at the bottom two. Pleasing centering and only light toning are attributes in our eyes and make for an attractive example for the grade. Also, the holder itself is without scratches or scuffs. A prerequisite to an important rookie card collection awaits yours. It should be noted that the grading standards followed by KSA may not correspond to those currently employed by PSA, BGS or SGC. The outcome of an attempted cross-over of the card through any of those services, then, would be uncertain and cannot be guaranteed.
