My Collection

Nelson,

Thanks for the question. Currently, I collect pre-war cards only (C55, C56, C57, Champ's Cigarette and V129's). I'm looking for PSA/SGC 6 and above. However, some cards such as C57's are only found in PSA/SGC 4 or 5's. In those cases, they're still a part of my collection.

My favorite players of all time are: #1 Bobby Orr, #2 Howie Morenz, #3 Eddie Shore.

My holy grail is my C55 Vezina PSA 7. Despite all of the talk about what's the holy grail of hockey cards and what may or may not be, this card still embodies all of the qualities that brought me to pre-war hockey in the first place: turn-of-the-century, scarcity, beauty, value, name recognition, historical importance of the player and set.

Hi Nelson,

I collect ALL hockey rookie cards of ALL years. Yes that is alot of cards to collect! I have every hockey rookie card from every set from the date 1951 until the present date. I do NOT collect any Topps rookies after the year 1970 only OPC. All my rookies are graded PSA 7 or higher OR if they are ungraded then they are in VERY sharp, nicely centered condition.

I do collect pre-war as well and I have many rookies from a variety of pre-war sets. I have many from 1910 and 1911 as well as 1933, 1936, 1940 and 1939. I only collect pre-war cards that are graded PSA 5 or higher.

My favorite player(s) of all time are #1. Wayne Grezkey #2. Bobby Orr and #3. Art Ross

The holy grail cards of my collection are: 1966 Topps Bobby Orr PSA 7, 1979 Grezkey PSA 8, 1951 Parkhurst Gordie Howe PSA 7 & 1936 OPC Series D Turk Broda PSA 5 & 1958 Topps Bobby Hull PSA 7.

I have so many more cards that are my favorite/holy grail but I decided to list a few.

I REALLY want a George Vezina rookie graded PSA 6 but I will have to wait for that as it will cost me a bundle.

Thanks,
Paul
