can easily see what I mean.Also check the very high asking prices on these cards as compared to the regular AS cards.

Thanks Winston.
I purchased this Black Bottom Bobby Orr a few years ago.
It is, however, the only one I have.

I have had them all at one point in time.Once I knew about the variation I would buy everyone
I seen at shows or flea markets.The only one I have left is Jacques Laperriere.

Happy to finish the year with an Orr item I have been waiting to add to the collection, a 1966 Oshawa Generals Premium. Hard to believe that it's a highest graded as a PSA 1.5. Also added a junior hockey program featuring Bobby Orr and the Oshawa Generals along with a ticket to one of Orr's final Junior Hockey games. Can't wait to see what the new year brings.

It is interesting that there are four future Boston Bruins in that program. Along with Orr there are Cashman and Beverly with Oshawa and Ace Bailey with Edmonton.

Not a new pick up but I figured some here would like stuff like this. A menu from Bobby Orr's Pizza Parlor. Very few around as they are very thin and tear very easily.

I do have the Cashman that came with the Orr. Would be a cool set to have.

Very cool. :)
Thanks for sharing.

I was only 7 in 71 so maybe that's why I don't remember there being one here but, I guess I'll have to ask my dad to see if we ever went?

Card show finds today

It was a really good day at the show. Some of the “haul” below. While I am not a Leafs fan, I couldn’t pass up the Mahovlich number match (27/99) card. I could make that available for the right trade if anyone is interested.

irv 01-12-2025 07:16 AM

Nice pick ups, Anthony!

1970/71 Dad’s Cookies Bob Clarke. Same year as his rookie at a fraction of the price. :)

Eric,

Nice pickup. The Perreault and Park are also in the set as "alternative" rookie cards to their OPC/Topps.

I'm glad the masses have largely shunned cards that are:
  1. "odd" sizes
  2. only licensed by the Players' Association

It generally makes pickups like these so cheap they can be impulse purchases.

A small lot of '80s Flyers cards arrived in the mail yesterday. Nothing high-value; however, they bring me straight back to my youth. Ideally, that's why we collect, right?

camaro69 01-25-2025 02:37 PM

This to just let anyone know that may be interested in a 1970 OPC Bobby Orr black bottom all-star card
that there is one on eBay right now and I believe someone may be going to get a great buy on the card.

First card I have posted in a while.

A Wyatt Johnston 3 color patch auto RC that I've been coveting for a long time now. Not this particular one, anyone, but this one fit the bill. 33/49.

First time a card I've ever purchased that went for eBay authentication. I always thought, but, I was wrong, obviously, that the auth was only for cards over $300 (this one wasn't) and they had to be graded.
I also didn't think, especially this one being raw and only $200 dollars, that a CDN buying off a fellow CDN that this card would apply/count as a eBay requirement.
All new to me.

Was concerned/worried, because these cards are sensitive to damage being so thick, that changing hands so many times and being shipped to the other side of he country/Americas it would get damaged but, thankfully, it arrived safe and sound in a very nice, well protected case from eBay.

Very nice!

I have a friend who's a big fan of Wyatt and I happily picked him up as a free agent in fantasy hockey - good subject, good card.

Thank you! :)

I also really like Wyatt Johnston and have been following him for a while now and collecting many of his cards along the way. I have some signed cards, patch cards, an Exclusives Young Guns, Canvas black and white Young Guns, etc, but never a patch/auto combined card. At only 21 yrs of age, his upside is huge, imo.
Glad to scratch that one off the list.
