My "The Great One" mailday

I have always wanted to own a Wayne Greztky autograph and today my wish came true. I purchased this beautiful 8x10 auto'ed picture from FCB'er Pinbreaker and Kevin was nice enough to allow me to make payments so I could afford to finally own one. the pic is of Gretzky scoring his record breaking 802nd goal and is from Upper Deck Authentic. thanks to Kevin for the easy transaction and without further ado here are the pics...

Sick stuff Dave!

Dave, it looks very nice!

Dave - That is absolutely awesome!! :shock: I don't have any hockey auto's, but I think that'd be a "Great One" to have.

Nice, I'm pretty sure that is Marty McSorley back behind net in the shot and he may have gotten an assist on that goal. So a little Pittsburgh flavor to it.

thanks everyone!!

former and future Penguin Marty McSorley did have the secondary assist on the goal and future Penguin Luc Robitaille had the primary assist.

Thanks for sharing

Great pick-up - didn't know that existed- one of UD's early authenticated items.

What was I thinking not buying that for myself? ::facepalm::

VERY nice auto Dave!!! I like the frame job and I REALLY like how it comes in that box with the cert. Now if we could only see what is inside that fridge...

Nice Gretzky!

pghbuccos · Nov 8, 2011

thanks again everyone.

Dan I appreciate you passing on it and telling Kevin to offer it to me :grouphug:

Alex thanks. I really like the box it came in as well and I'm glad Kevin kept it all these years. I am very happy with how the frame and matting turned out. as for the fridge contents it's our Mt. Dew and beer fridge :mrgreen:

Awesome pickup Dave! I remember watching that on ESPN the night it happened.

Great auto!! Love the pic, I watched that game and loved that the record was against my Canucks.

Jared thanks. it's not a bad record for your team to give up.
