I only had a few of these as a kid, I'm pretty sure I have a couple of Opening Day Issues postcards from those days but that's about it. They were short-printer at 1000 cards.
There's also a parallel version of each card from the base set titled Stamp Of Approval numbered out of 100 per card in the 220 card set. The cards are die-cut like a stamp and stamped on the front, serial number on the back. Pulling a Gretzky parallel would be the highlight card from these parallels (in my opinion) but scoring one of these can be a little difficult.
I got this great looking card of Patrick Roy! Very happy, the subset looks very nice with the stamp ridges included. It was a fantastic way to end my NHL mailbox break.
And yes, that is Santa Claus that you see peeking behind the mailbox. Haha we put our tree up a little earlier than usual this year.
It's a nice card but I just want to know the difference between my card and yours. I have the same Roy card but yours is Die-Cut and mine is not. Just plan white borders.
ReplyDeleteThe original card is from a subset within the set, which might be the card that you have.
DeleteI have a bunch of this priority stuff, let me know if you are going to collect it and I can send it back your way!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, I would be glad to send the cards I have for you in return. I'll get my package out to you in the week.
