Description

UP FOR AUCTION IS THIS AUTHENTIC 1958-59 TOPPS HOCKEY CARD #10 OF BOSTON BRUINS RIGHT WING LARRY REGAN. TOPPS HOCKEY CARDS FROM THE 1950's WERE MAINLY ISSUED IN THE NORTHERN AND NORTH EASTERN PARTS OF THE UNITED STATES. THEY WERE PRINTED IN MUCH SMALLER AMOUNTS THAN BASEBALL CARDS FROM THE SAME ERA. LARRY REGAN WAS THE 1957 NHL ROOKIE OF THE YEAR. A HOCKEY LIFER, HE PLAYED FOR THE BRUINS & MAPLE LEAFS BEFORE WORKING AS A SCOUT, COACH OR FRONT OFFICE EXECUTIVE. REGAN WAS THE LOS ANGELES KINGS HEAD COACH & GENERAL MANAGER IN THE LATE 60's AND EARLY 70's. THIS 66 YEAR OLD EXAMPLE DISPLAYS GLOSS, BRIGHT COLORS AND A NICE SUIRFACE FEEL THAT COLLECTORS WANT. THE CORNERS HAVE SOME OLDER AGE FUZZY WEAR OR A SMALL DING/WRINKLE NEARBY. WHEN I TURNED THE CARD TOWARDS THE LIGHT I NOTICED SMALL SURFACE MARKS ON EITHER SIDE, OFTEN FOUND ON VINTAGE CARDS. THE OPENING BID IS ONLY $6.00. SHIPPING AND HANDLING IS $1.50. I'LL ADJUST SHIPPING FOR MULTIPLE WINS SO PLEASE LOOK AT MY OTHER LISTINGS. THANK YOU!
