'72 team canada cards

[brettyd]

anyone have any info on this stuff? i just came across a bunch of opened and unopened boxes. i actually found a dennis hull auto in a opened box and am curious to how hard these autos were to find and who else may be on the checklist. (i know dryden was.)

Aparently only 750 autos of each player were inserted into packs. These cards have the special swirl finish on them and Dryden was in there as well. I don't know what the odds were to pull one, but I have seen a couple of full sets on eBay, but I am not sure if they sold. I can not remember how many players actually signed for the set.

The Pack inserted cards had the swirls, while the autographs that were inserted in the complete sets that you could buy from "The Bay" did not.

Also as an aside, I was wondering if this set has the only Bill Goldsworthy autograph ever issued as he died just a while after it was issued.


My best,
