Key "Chase" Cards, Rookies & Key Checklist Hits
-
#56 Russ Jackson (QB - Ottawa Rough Riders): The premier key card, rookie issue, and top chase hit in the set. As a Canadian Football Hall of Famer and one of the greatest Canadian-born quarterbacks in CFL history, Jackson's card #56 is the centerpiece of the entire release.
-
#72 Angelo Mosca (Tackle - Hamilton Tiger-Cats): The iconic rookie card for the legendary Hall of Fame defensive lineman and pro wrestling star ("Angry Angelo").
-
#3 Leo Lewis (Halfback - Winnipeg Blue Bombers): Key second-year card for the "Lincoln Locomotive" and Hall of Fame running back.
-
#1 Norm Rauhaus (End - Winnipeg Blue Bombers): Card #1 in the set, making high-grade centered copies particularly challenging to find.
-
#7 Gerry James (Fullback - Winnipeg Blue Bombers): Key issue for the former CFL Most Valuable Player.
-
#63 Dick Shatto (Halfback - Toronto Argonauts): Key card for the all-time Argonauts fan favorite and scoring machine.
-
#47 Stan Renning & #48 Gino Fracas (Edmonton Eskimos): Key Western Interprovincial Football Union (WIFU) star cards.
-
High Series Short Prints (#45–#88): Cards in the second series (#45–#88) were issued in lower quantities than the first series (#1–#44), making high-numbered cards—including the Russ Jackson rookie—substantially rarer and more valuable.
