Hockey tallboy help wanted

bri2327

Wasnt there a hockey set issued in either 94 or 95 that were considered tallboys ? Id like to put together a Rangers team set from their cup year, and with this months special it would be a good time to do it. Anyone with info please help, thanks !

I know I have a handful of them buried away somewhere since they were new. The set was called Powerplay, from the 93-94 season I think. If memory serves, the set was made by Fleer. If I find them, I'll post up a scan or two.

Oh, and that set was virtually rookie-free, so you should have no problem buying a few boxes for dirt cheap.

Do you mean the 1994/95 Parkhurst 64/65 Tall Boys?

The power play were the ones I was thinking of, but thats only because I never knew about the parkhurst...are they reprints of the 64/65's ?

Here are some scanned examples. Sorry, no Rangers.

They are indeed 1993-94 Fleer Powerplay. I guess these are the hockey equivalent of the NFL Gameday cards that someone was showing off in another thread. Identical design...

There were no 64-65 Parkies. The "reprints" were an attempt at what they might have looked like if Parkhurst had survived another year.

Edited for clarity.
