Near-complete set of 1952-1953 Parkhurst Hockey, highlighted by legendary Hall of Famers Gordie Howe, Maurice Richard, and Terry Sawchuk. Missing only #58 Horton for completion. Included are three duplicates (#3 Geoffrion, 10 Moore RC, and 42). Condition is 17% Ex to Ex-Mt, 71% Vg to Vg-Ex, and 12% lesser (including one trimmed and one that measures small). Fifteen cards have been professionally graded and encapsulated by PSA (13), BVG (1), and KSA (1). Keys: #1 Richard (BVG VG+ 3.5), two 3 Geoffrion (Vg-Ex+ and VG-EX 4), two 10 Moore RC (Vg-Ex and Vg), 14 Harvey (Vg-Ex), 34 Boivin RC (EX-MT 6), 51 Armstrong RC (POOR 1), 53 Delvecchio (75/25 T/B, otherwise Nr/Mt), 67 Kelly (Vg-Ex), 86 Sawchuk (EX 5), 87 Lindsay (Vg-Ex), and 88 Howe (VG-EX 4). Nine additional PSA-graded cards: #4 (EX-MT 6), 13 (EX-MT 6), 27 (KSA ENM 6), 39 (VG 3), 70 (VG-EX 4), 74 (GOOD+ 2.5), 75 (VG+ 3.5), 78 (VG-EX 4), and 95 (EX 5). This is a very attractive, mostly mid-grade near-complete set (minus one) of this classic 1950s hockey set, with several notable highlights. Total: 107 cards (near set of 104 plus three duplicates).
