A 1979 Wayne Gretzky rookie card has just sold for a record $3.75 million at Heritage Auctions.
Take a look:
From Sport's Collectors Digest:
The Great One set his own record when Heritage Auctions sold one of only two known 1979 O-Pee-Chee Wayne Gretzky rookie cards graded PSA Gem Mint 10 for $3.75 million. The sale shattered the previous record set in December, when Heritage sold the only other gem-mint Canadian version of his Edmonton Oilers rookie card for $1.29 million. The December sale marked the first time a hockey card surpassed the $1 million mark.
