The offered lot is a simply remarkable accumulation of the iconic 1962 Parkhurst Hockey issue, a complete set that is in a virtually unimprovable overall condition, with each and every card slabbed and graded by PSA, with the vast majority in PSA 8 Near-Mint to Mint holders and the handful of outliers actually in something above that level. That kind of lineage yields a sparkling 8.23 GPA on the PSA Set Registry, earning a No. 15 ranking for the issue. The elegant 1962 Parkhurst issue – with card backs written both English and French - features 54 cards of 2 7/16-by-3 5/8-inch dimensions and featuring players from only three NHL clubs: the Maple Leafs, Red Wings and Canadiens, with nearly half of the grouping portraying members of the Hockey Hall of Fame. In addition to the regular-issue cards, this extraordinary lot includes the rare Talley Card Checklist and the Zip Game card, both found here in PSA 9 Mint condition. With PSA 8 as the default grade, here’s the breakdown of the handful of cards landing above that level: PSA 9 Mint (4) – No. 32 Delvecchio and No. 34 Abel, plus the Tally Card Checklist and the Zip Game Card; PSA 8.5 Near-Mint to Mint-Plus (5) – No. 9, 13, 31 Howe, 49 Plante and 50.
