Parkie Overload, Part 2.

I promised to show off more of these.... so if any of you are out there, here they are. Well, some of them, anyway. There are still a whack more to come.
Soon.
I had a couple of requests for backs, so they are here too.... bask in the gloriousness.



The great Dickie Moore - 2 time Art Ross winner, 6 time All Star, 6 time Stanley Cup winner, Hall of Fame.

Junior Langlois - 2 time All Star, 3 time Stanley Cup winner

Bill Hicke - 3 time All Star, 2 time Stanley Cup winner

Ralph Backstrom - Calder Trophy winner, 6 time All Star, 6 time Stanley Cup winner

Don Marshall - 7 time All Star, 5 Time Stanley Cup winner

Not much into typing today.... this heat wave is kicking my a$$. Calgary should not be this hot for this long. If I wanted to live in Phoenix, I would move to Phoenix.

ugh.

So sharp, you could shave with them...

Where does the time go?

Meh. Anyways..... I thought I'd show off a few recent acquisitions. These are all in amazing shape. No creases, no wrinkles, no issues, save an off centre or two. But what's that between friends, right?

I won't bore you with card numbers or names, especially since in 1960 they printed them right on the front of the card.

 Just look at that colour pop. Simple. Clean.

Amazing cards. I'll hopefully post some of their friends later.

Oh, Happy Canada Day.

EDIT:

I've had a request to see the backs.... ask and ye shalt receive. (Some of the time, anyway)

C'est fantastique, non?

King of Trivia

In November, Diamond Cuts and Wax Stains decided to have a contest. And he was giving away cards! I know!

Vintage cards!

AND!!!!

It was a trivia contest!

I know!

Okay. Enough exclamation points. But I get excited when I have a chance to use this vast wealth of completely useless sports knowledge I have in my cranium.

Onto the contest. Which I won on the first clue. What can I say?

But in the end, joke's on me, I won a Bruin. Say hello to a '62/63 OPC Murray Oliver.

Cool sweater though.

So Diamonds and Wax Stains decided to have another trivia contest. For more vintage. (It was really hard not to use exclamtion points there)

This time I won on the second clue.

I won a rookie card of a defenceman named Robert from the '66/67 OPC set!!!

Wrong Robert. This one played for Detroit.

Also in the prize pack was this beauty.

a '61/62 Norm Ullman. I hope Norm did toothpaste commercials.

That was the end of the trivia contests.

*sigh*

But.

In the prize envelope, I also found a 71/72 OPC Harper,

and a pair of Marc Tardiffs. Or is plural of Tardiff, Tardives? I never did understand French.

These are perfect as I was scouring my collection for Tardiff cards in a Habs sweater for a ttm request. Now I don't have to use my WHA cards of him.

 

Lastly, we have a '70/71 of the Little 'M', Peter Mahovlich.

Thanks for the cards! and the trivia contests!!!!


oh. One last thing. Awhile ago I posted on Waxaholic about some baseball cards that $30 a Week sent me. Well in that package was one hockey card....

 

Thanks for Pernell Robert!
