Hello my friends. I am always delighted that so many of you visit my site. I hope you find it enjoyable, informative, and interesting. I have decided to ask your help in locating a couple of items that have eluded me over all of these years. Maybe we can do together what I have not been able to do alone.
I am looking for four items of Gretzky's that are very hard to find, but one of these four items makes the top of the list for me, so if you have any idea how I can find one please let me know. I am going to use pictures so you can be absolutely sure about what it is I am looking for.
This is my holy grail item. I am in search of the 1978 Racers Exhibition Game Program with Gretzky on the cover.
The Racers Guide above is the only Racers program that Wayne ever donned the cover of and it is not even a regular season game. This program was put out during the exhibition season of 7 games. He then only played 8 more games for them before being traded to the Edmonton Oilers of the same WHA league.
This is a guide I would love to find and if you can help me I am more than willing to offer you a finder's fee. Anyone with information that leads me to the purchase of one of these, will be compensated-you can be sure of that.
The three others that are a tough find are also in the image above.
2. (bottom left) The second item I would like to find, (though, not in any way to the same extent as the Racers program above), is Ty Gretzky's 1991-92 Upper Deck T-1, Young Gun's insert card.
3. (bottom right) The third item I am seeking is his 1987 Oddball card from his days as President of the Hull-Olympiques minor league hockey team. This card shouldn't be so hard for me to find and it makes me wonder what I am doing wrong that I have not yet found one. (I say this because there are so many I have found that are harder to come by than this one, yet, I still dont have my own Hull-Olympiques card.
4. (top left) Another card that I would like to find more of is his Finish Sportscaster card. There is an American version of this card which is also a tough find but it is findable. The Finish ones are harder to get hold of and should you know someone with one, please let me know.
Thank you for any info leading to these treasures. (Finders Fee is a given). Post below or email me.
