Let's just say I learned my lesson. I always thought it tasted like they just made one batch of gum back in the 50s and kept using the same supply over the decades. They only stopped putting gum in hockey cards when they finally ran out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a ton of 9 and 10 mint and near mint 7/8s cards from the 70s/80s and 90s that I recently priced out. My mom made me clean out my storage at her place last year where there were boxes of cards.. Some players didn't drop as much as others. There is a decent market still going on ebay. Seems now is when people my age are buying again for nostalgia I guess. Edited June 24, 2019 by Gnarcore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master 112 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) My family gifted me a Pettersson rookie card a couple of months back. I'll try to post it when I get home. Those Whalers cards are slick. Edited June 26, 2019 by 112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
