1923 V145-1 Paterson Jack Adams #24 Rookie Card - PSA VG+ 3.5

Rookie card of hockey legend Jack Adams, one of the most influential figures in NHL history, from the landmark 1923 V145-1 Paterson issue and professionally graded PSA VG+ 3.5.

Pictured during his playing career with the Toronto St. Patricks, Adams later became best known for his extraordinary tenure with the Detroit Red Wings as coach and general manager, helping build the franchise into one of the NHL's great dynasties. His legacy is commemorated by the Jack Adams Award, presented annually to the NHL's top head coach, and he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1959.

This PSA VG+ 3.5 represents an appealing example of an important early Hall of Fame rookie from one of the defining Canadian hockey card issues of the 1920s. Its scarcity in this grade further enhances its appeal, with a PSA population of just 4 examples graded VG+ 3.5 and only 24 examples graded higher.
