A customer at the lcs bought a box of 12/13 SP Authentic and brought it home to break it ( he asked the store owner to pick a box ). Within a short time he was back at the store thanking the owner for picking a great box and showed him the great card that was within. The store owner looked at the card and commented what a great pull it was. The customer then said " look at the back of the card. " I'll let the pictures explain the rest.


Front of card 94/95 SP Retro Auto group A, odds 1:1508
Bobby Orr







Then the back of the card




I haven't seen any other Orr retro autos on line so I don't know if other copies exist with the dual auto, it could be quite rare. We discussed value of the card and we took into consideration that there is no shortage of Orr autos in this product and came up with figures ranging from 500 to 800 if there are no other copies with the dual auto. Personally I wouldn't let it go for less than 500. The card is not mine and the owner is not selling at this time, Curious to know what you think ?
 
Very weird card. But cool. Congrats on the killer card. And I'd say like 800-900. Depending on what upper deck says. Maybe contact them and see how many we're produced and how many with a dual auto
 
I know another person that pulled one during release of the product and his is also signed on both sides. He was waiting for another one to show up online as well to see if his was the only one signed on both sides.
 
Perhaps Orr thought there's no way Upper Deck would want the auto on this dark, reflective surface and decided to sign the back while he was at it. That's my guess, anyways.

As for a value, I'd say about $200-$250.
 
Amazing pull, good stuff! I wouldn't bother contacting Upper Deck in hopes for a print number. They simply won't tell you.
 
I would try to be the first to toss it online and see how high it goes. If they are all signed on both sides I would think $200 would be realistic with the first one selling for a bit higher due to a bidding war.
 
This has happened a bit. Got an Esposito private signings auto'd both sides and not the only copy out there. Hey, it's all a bonus and congrats
