1969-70 Bobby Orr stamp

Hi all, new member here.

I was looking through my old locker and came across this stamp I picked up 25 years ago.
My curiosity got the best of me and I ended up here. I'm in the process of sending it out to be graded, do you think there is any interest in it?
I'm going to go through my other cards and stuff to see what I still have, it's been a long time.
I've enjoyed the PSA site and message board, it brings back memories!!
Have a great day

Bob

ps sorry for the lousy picture, my camera stinks and I don't have a scanner.

The best part about the 69-70 Orr's in OPC and Topps is that he's still sporting the buzz cut. Once you hit 70-71's its mops all the way to the end.

whatever you do - keep the entire stamp roll intact ( do not separate)

and YES - I think there would be interest to get it graded.

That should fetch $500.00+ if it grades 8 or 9.

Good luck !!!

What I find ironic is that some grading companies (ahem) mark higher for items that are used as intended by the maker - i.e. perferated cards ripped by hand rather than professionally cut.

in the same vein, these stamps were intended to be adhered to the back of the hockey cards - yet, would not grade highly if found as such.

curious ...

Wow, I think I only paid 10 bucks and I thought I was crazy then. But I thought it was a cool item so I bought it anyway.lol

How do you declare a value when submitting for a grade when you don't know what it's worth?
I can't seem to find much about this stamp online in the SMR or elsewhere.
Any help is appreciated, knowledgeable members!!


Thanks Bob.
