Wayne Gretzky | 1980s OPC and Topps Hockey Card Collection

I have some slabbed rookies and 2nd year base cards not shown in this video. The final card is not from the 1980s, but I found it in the same box. Just sharing some nostalgia and possibly something more. Thanks for watching :)

Incredible collection holy. Are you in Ontario?

Thanks Adamo! Yes, I usually go to shows in the GTA. What do you collect?!

@@drgatsis I’m just getting back into the hobby. Focusing on Gretzky cards. You have his rookie? Good condition? Awesome stuff man.

@@adamo1827 can't go wrong with Gretzky. I have a bgs 5.5 opc and an ungraded topps. I had a couple of other ones but used them to trade up for other stuff

[@adamo1827]

@@drgatsis Do you own any of the Upper Deck Gretzky cards? Or do you anticipate they won’t be valuable down the road since they’re considered junk wax era?

[@seansmith2289]

I can't imagine how much it would cost to get them all graded

[@drgatsis]

That would be way over the top! I have a friend who grades 80s cards and he and I are going to go through and find all that are likely 7+ depending on the year

@@drgatsis Great collection! I'm trying to get one of each from the 80s and a rookie. That's my goal. Have a great day!

@@seansmith2289 thank you! Best of luck with your hunt! :)

Very nice - I recently acquired a 1980 Wayne Gretzky OPC 2nd year - PSA 9 - but the back says printed by Topps. This is the first I ever seen like this. What are your thoughts on this?

[@drgatsis]

Oh that's wild. I honestly don't know. That's a good one to ask one of the groups on Facebook. Opc psa 9 is a fantastic grade wow

[@ijksmom99]

@@drgatsis Thanks - I am trying to ask around and get more info.

​@@ijksmom99 Good luck! If you have facebook try the group TGSC true gem sports cards; they're trustworthy

This isn’t math😨

[@drgatsis]

Haha yes! Random math and sports cards felt like too long of a title for the channel ;)

[@RSWETOYS]

Nice collection are you any chance interested in selling?

[@drgatsis]

Thanks :) I have held on to the collection. A friend of mine in the hobby is interested in it but at this point I am not looking to move it. May I ask where you are located?
