I have a large collection of Mario Lemieux memorabilia from the 90's. Also, I have some really great hockey and baseball cards, some autographs, etc. I think I shall post some.
This is the Mario Lemieux Topps Rookie Card. I got it for my 12th birthday, and it was such a big deal to me. Before the Internet, I remember the story. My dad arranged to meet the card dealer at an ice cream store an hour from home. And he surprised me later that day. Things like that you will remember forever, just love this card.
Although it is not the O-Pee-Chee version it is still a good one in great condition. Mario was my idol growing up, a true class act, the man responsible for saving hockey in the great city of Pittsburgh. Without him, they wouldn't be able to win the Stanley Cup this year....;) Enjoy!
thanks tommy1002!
The Opeechee roookie card is another one of my "unicorns". Great piece! Love it!
