Gretzky Rookie in Classic

[martindl]

Hockey doesn't seem to get much of a following on here, but i know most everyone who collects would appreciate the significance of a Gretzky's rookie year sweater.

This thing has taken off already. Nice shirt

Re: Gretzky Rookie in Classic

One of the best photo matches I've seen. Most don't know the true value of hockey items making it a great sport to collect. You would think though that fans in Canada and Europe would propell this end of the hobby. More than likely thev've been brought up to be a little more carefull with their disposable cash. The very first game used items I acquired were Ranger sticks used by Derek Sanderson(hand stamped on the stick:27 Dec 74) and Rod Gilbert that year 74. They gave them away behind the bench like it was nothing-I still have them. My friends look at it like:"Yea-nice,let's see the baseball stuff". Anyway the Gretzky jersey looks good. I can't afford it but I know it's worth more.
