Collector's notes

As a vintage issue, condition is everything — most surviving copies show wear from decades of handling, which is why high-grade examples command such dramatic premiums over raw copies.

Hockey cards trade in a tighter but dedicated market — key rookies and vintage stars hold value well.

Is it worth grading?

With raw copies near $0.74 and top grades reaching $142.50, grading a sharp copy of this card can clearly pay for itself — the spread comfortably covers a typical ~$25.00 grading fee. The catch: only submit copies with strong centering, clean corners, and unmarked surfaces, because anything below a 9 usually erases the math.

PSA remains the most liquid grading label in the hobby, while BGS (with its Black Label 10) and modern entrants CGC and SGC have growing followings — the table above shows how each label prices for this card.

Buying & selling tips

The fastest way to gauge the real market for this card is to scan the live eBay listings above: look at the spread between auction and Buy-It-Now prices, and check sold history before paying top dollar.
