Parkhurst Project Continues With Card 24

Even though it has been over a year since I last updated the chase I assure you I have made some pretty decent progress. I have nailed a few huge ones off the list so I will share them over my next few posts! Lets start with the least significant and work our way to the most significant, and hopefully by the end of it all my 33-34 OPC will have arrived.


So Frederick Glover pretty much Reggie Dunlop as he spent the last 6 seasons as a player-coach with the AHL Cleveland Barons which include a championship in 63-64. In fact Fred Glover was an AHL superstar scoring the second highest career point total in AHL history with 1334 points. Sadly, he never hit his stride at the NHL level where he managed 13 goals and 11 assists in 92 career games. Despite that limited NHL success, he does have a Stanley Cup to his resume as well as a number of AHL awards and Championships. Fred did sadly pass away back in 2001 but he is survived by his former teammate and brother Howie.

The card itself is in horrible shape and I may consider upgrading it but I couldn't pass it up based on the price.

Progress:


Card # 60 and # 24 of my set


Percentage Complete:

22.9%

Cost of the Card:

2.99 with shipping


Total Cost of Set to Date:

$163.28

  1. Cool! Looking forward to the rest of these.

    Fred Glover was also coach of the Seals, IIRC.
