555.0. "Wayne Gretzky heroes sheet from UD" by TOOK::SOKOL () Wed Apr 21 1993 14:28

    I just recieved Wayne Gretzky heroes sheet from Upper Deck (mail offer,
    you send 15 wrappers and a check for $2.95). It has all 10 cards images
    reduce to about 75%. Any idea if it's going to be worth anything?

    I received mine a couple of weeks ago  and  yesterday  I receievd the
    two All-Star sheets. The current issue of SCD has a story/price guide
    on all the Upper Deck sheets  although  the  Gretzky and the two All-
    Star sheets weren't mentioned. To give you an idea  of  price though,
    most of the sheets listed were  about 10-15$ in price with an average
    distribution  of  15,000-18,000 per sheet.  I imagine the Gretzky and
    All-Star sheets would be worth a  little less considering they proba-
    bly distributed more of them.

        more coming and was going to trade it for something i need. Of

    Did you note that the Gretzky sheets are numbered.  This will help.
    A word of caution.  I'm a Gretzky collector-his stuff is funny-it never
    goes anywhere price wise.  I have a case of the Gretzky coins that I
    was sur was going to let me move to Brazil-zippo.  These coins come in
    a pack with a Gretzky card and were passed out at the Saddledome on one
    night!!!!!!!   Think there worth anything, NO.
    How about a game sweater from the Indianapolis Racers signed and
    authenticated- 39.00.   He played for the Racers before the Oilers
    discovered-It's a minor league hockey team in the AHL.
    I hope he runs for president with Bill Bradley.

    HUmmmmmmmm.  Even though I'm scheduled for knee surgery, I might hold
    onto the Gretzky stuff.
    It seems that I have torn my knee up jumping on and off and on and off
    various bandwagons over the past decades.
