Recent Sales
Recent sales for mid-grade raw copies of this card typically fall between $2 and $8 on platforms like eBay. Graded PSA 8 or better copies can reach $20-$40, but this specific card's condition is significantly lower.
Condition Details
The card shows significant corner rounding and wear on all four corners. There is visible edge wear and whitening, particularly on the top and right sides. The top right corner has a notable crease or fraying. Surface dirt and slight discoloration are visible on the borders.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The visible corner wear and creasing would result in a low technical grade, likely between a 2 and 3. The cost of grading would exceed the market value of the card.
Card Description
The card features New York Rangers Right Wing Anders Hedberg. He is wearing the classic white Rangers jersey with the shield logo. The design features a circular team logo in the upper left with the player name in the upper right. This set is famous for containing the Wayne Gretzky rookie card.
Notable Features
Hedberg was a star in the WHA before joining the NHL; this card represents his early years in the NHL following the merger.
Authentication Notes
The card appears authentic to the 1979-80 production run. The card stock shows appropriate age-related browning (toning) on the edges and the print ink halftone pattern is consistent with period-accurate offset lithography.
