If you missed out on the sealed case of 79/80 OPC wax boxes that recently sold at auction for nearly $4M, here’s your chance at perhaps the closest thing to FASC packs. This piece is four unopened wax packs factory sealed in a plastic bag with a cardboard header. They represent some of the earliest FASC equivalents since they have only been handled by OPC factory employees. OPC only issued grocery wax racks for a few different issues across baseball and hockey, with this being the first one. How lucky for us that the 79 OPC set also happens to include the rookie card of the greatest hockey player ever to lace up the skates, Wayne Gretzky! Is he in these packs? The prospect is mesmerizing! While we have authenticated and wrapped over 30 boxes of 79/80 OPC hockey wax, we have done a miniscule amount of these wax/racks that we would put in the 5-6 range!
