For the lead lot in this month's auction, we're pleased to offer this quintessential vintage hockey card! The 1954-55 Topps issue marked the major US gum company's first foray into hockey cards and a major upgrade in terms of card design. The full color artwork remains among the best of any vintage card sets produced. Prices continue to escalate for this set, with a recent high-grade set selling for $30,000 USD (nearly $40,000 CDN). Here we have THE key card in the set, Gordie Howe, who remains the top dog of vintage hockey collecting. Combine the set's popularity with "Mr. Hockey", and you have the ingredients of a foundational piece for any serious hockey card collection. This one is graded a very presentable 5 EX by PSA. Ask and more importantly sale prices for this card in this grade are in the $2500 USD ($3250 CDN) range. The unreserved opening bid of $2000 CDN (less than $1500 USD!) represents a significant discount to established comps. Don't miss this great opportunity to own one of vintage hockey collecting's most iconic cards at a great price!
