Another eBay purchase, this one from a seller in Canada. :)
Glad I grabbed a few Gretzky cards before the recent price spike. |
i'm a huge fan of 82-83 OPC. I think they're underrated, mainly because the lack of big rookies. But I love the design and they're REALLY tough to get centered and cut clean.
|
Nice pickups! 1951-52 has really increased in price this year!

I already had the OPC and made this impulse purchase on eBay a couple weeks ago.
The card value climbed a bit while the US Postal Service had it. Wish all my cards saw appreciation like that during transit. :D |

Some of you may have seen this book on Ebay, as it's been floating around for a while. I finally decided to pick it up. It's super cool and something I probably won't ever see again. Tons of great signatures, including: Howe, Beliveau, Richard Brothers, Bobby Hull, Esposito Brothers, etc...
I haven't received it yet, but can't wait! |
I'm just four cards away from a full set 1952-53 Parkhurst after these two Hall Of Fame rookie cards Leo Boivin and George Armstrong. I'm getting there!

A new arrival today that I didn't think was going to ever arrive. 75-76 OPC Bobby Orr. Surprisingly, this was a tough card for me to find centered (L/R) and although this one isn't perfect, it was the best I could find during my search period.

Curious, did your Orr card ever show up? |

Nope. My Orr was likely stolen out of my mailbox. Apparently, the whole street got hit. I had to replace the box with a high security one but the card is gone.

79 Topps Gretzky
Very happy to finally land this Gretzky rookie card. Took a while for it to arrive but well worth the wait.

A recent pickup that arrived not as described but due to the fact these are on the rare side and don't come up very often, and with that being reconfirmed with Jeff's opinion, (thanks again, Jeff) I have decided to keep it. A 70-71 OPC black bottom Bobby Orr card.

Great addition. Bummer about it no being accurately described. I have had that happen on a few rare Bench items I have picked up over the years and decided to keep instead of sending back for the exact same reason. Congrats!!! |

A couple recent arrivals. I obviously don't know for sure, but I think Nicklas Backstrom will be a HOF'r someday? Great numbers, long career, Stanley Cup and a couple other awards should do it, imo.
Anyone else think/believe this? Records Youngest Swedish player ever in World Championship (18 years and 6 months).[35] First NHL rookie to record four assists in two consecutive games.[36] Most assists in a season by a rookie, Washington Capitals team record (56 assists), 2007–08 season. Most assists in Washington Capitals franchise with 684 NHL Young Stars Game 2008 NHL All-Rookie Team 2008 Viking Award 2009, 2015 NHL All-Star Game 2016 Stanley Cup champion 2018 |
Hi Dale,
In my opinion Backstrom is a lock for the Hall |
I persevered through these Auction Sites being hacked, and up and down auctions to win some low grade hits to my '51-'52 and '52-'53 Parkhurst sets!

I love the old Parkies

A few recent adds. A Nathan McKinnon young guns was out of the question due to its massive price increase lately so I thought this Fleer Ultra was a good alternative.
Also quite happy to pick up this, The Cup, Mike Bossy signed HOF induction card. :) |

This one was purchased prior to what I wrote above so it doesn't count. :D
Marcel Dionne, 71-72 OPC RC. Real happy with this one! The condition is fantastic and looks much better in hand than what it did in the sellers scans. |

There is a tiny little speck of something near Marcel's right ear that is stuck on there very good. I seen it in the sellers scans but I assumed/was hoping if was just dirt on his scanner's surface but that wasn't the case. Regardless of that, and the fact it shows up more from a scan than it does in hand, I am still real happy with it. |

Beautiful pick ups. Really like the signed book and the black bottom print Orr.
One of my favorite Orr's. Picked this up last week and it's now on it's way to Steve. |

Will always pick up centered Gretzky and Lemieux opc rookies in any grade.
Got these off ebay this month. |

A couple recent arrivals. Terry Sawchuk and Pat Verbeek.
Pat Verbeek is not a HOF'r but I just recently found out his birthday is exactly the same as mine. Same day, same month, same year, so I thought I'd grab it up just for fun. :) |
