Well......there's 10 minutes I'll never get back.




And I couldn't be happier about it.

What an amazing show. Just gorgeous cards. Love the Horton. Was it tougher to find a higher grade since it's card #1 in the set?

The Sawchuk is a beauty too.

Thanks for sharing.
 
The hardest card in this set is the Morrison.Mostly because it is the last card and the fact that it is really just a common.So I am sure a lot of his cards were just tossed back in the day.

Glad I am so inspiring lol! Those cards are awesome. The great thing I noticed is that most of the superstars that were in the set are graded really well for you. Beliveau, Sawchuk, Horton and the others are 6.5 or higher. Great job! I only have 15 out of the 61 in that set that are graded. Thanks for showing us!

I have a couple sets of this year so I picked what I thought was the best card of the two and sent those for grading.I wanted them all graded by the same company so that they would have a look of uniformity.Your well on your way with having 15 of the 61 cards.Good luck with finishing it off.
 
Winston,

Very nice set. I wish I was at that point with my OPC sets. Besides buying/trading for the newer stuff, I have recently found myself looking at older cards. Started working on sets from the mid 70's - 1975-76 and 1976-77 OPC. The challange is to find them in condition that comes out of the pack. I guess this is what the quest is all about.

Thanks for the showing. It provides a look back at when cards were simple, but held vast memories of times that one could relive time and time again.

Very nice, that is a great looking set. I too just started to build this set. So far I have 3 of 61 LOL! It'll be a slow build. I too want to get them all graded when the set is complete.
