A few sharp cards.

Yep - those are all pretty sharp!!!

I have my doubts on the second Gretzky (no print mark on shoulder) and I don't know enough about the Jordan RCs, but holy smokes!!!!

The 2nd Gretzky is the topps version and has the typical yellow line - looks good to me. Only the OPC has the yellow "blotch"

Nice cards!

Thanks for the info. I still have my doubts w/ those edges, but if it's good, that card alone makes this one helluva ridiculously expensive lot!! Without it, it's still got some incredibly expensive high-grade cards.

Great score! The white borders on all of them are so sparkly, like they've never had any exposure to light or humidity. And the corners - say what!

Are you concerned with the clean cut edges? If so, I think you're again confusing the OPC Gretzky characteristics with the Topps. The OPC was cut with a wire and often has rough edges (like the first Gretzky scan in this post) but the Topps typically has a sharp cut.

Everything in this collection is authentic as can be! The OPC Gretzky is amazing.

Oh my God, Sean! /drool

I have a few of those in my Packer PC. I love the old Philadelphia football cards.

After I run over to the pharmacy, I'm going to have to look at these on my desktop PC. A 22" monitor > my laptop.

What I've seen already is really impressive! Are these going to be sold individually?

Yeah, after PSA gets a whirl. There were 40 sets in the collection.

I almost want to drag some people from Topps over to this thread, and say "see?"

The cards back in the 50s, 60s and 70s had personality, and a lot of color. Nothing that Topps is producing now can even touch these old cards.
