Find yourself 42% of the way home towards set completion, with the acquisition of this pairing of autographed 1978-1979 Topps and O-Pee-Chee hockey partial sets. While the WHA had lured away a good number of pro hockey players, the Cleveland Barons merged with the Minnesota North Stars, contracting the NHL to 17 teams for the 1978-1979 season, strengthening the talent pool a bit. Talent is abundant in this offering of (277) signed cards, which boasts (33) Hall of Famer autographs, and many stars. Signature strength ranges ("7" to "10"), and the cards generally range (EX to NM).





Highlights are Hall of Famers with auction LOA from James Spence/JSA, with:



Topps: Lafluer Highlights, Trottier, Sittler, Mikita, Gainey, Lafluer, Dionne, Perreault, Federko, Ratelle, Wilson, Barber, Savard, Robinson, Gillies, Salming, Robinson Stanley Cup;



O-Pee-Chee: Lafleur Highlights, Sittler, Smith, Mikita, Gainey, McDonald, Dionne, Lafleur, Ratelle, Shutt, Barber, Robinson, Gillies, Salming, T. Esposito, Lapointe.





Balance are offered without authentication due to time/cost restraints, however they are presumed to be genuine. Some of the many stars present are:



Topps: Hedberg, Magnuson, O'Reilly, R. Martin, Resch, Cashman, Pronovost, Goring, Nystrom, Kehoe, Schultz, Nilsson;



O-Pee-Chee: Ramsey, Unger, Boldirev, Paiement, Goring, Nystrom, Leach, Bouchard, Gare, Kehoe, Nilsson.

Opening Bid $250.
