A Wayne Gretzky rookie card has sold for a record $3.75 million at auction.
Heritage Auctions of Dallas said Thursday the 1979 O-Pee-Chee Gretzky card was in gem mint condition and went to an anonymous buyer. The card features the hockey great in his Edmonton Oilers uniform during the team s final WHA season before the franchise joined the NHL. The sale topped the online company s previous high for a hockey card. In December, Heritage sold a Gretzky card from Professional Sports Authenticator for $1.29 million, the first hockey card to exceed $1 million.

Here’s an understatement for you: the fourth-generation Mustang isn’t one of Ford’s best-ever muscle cars. In fact, models produced between 1994 and 1998 look extremely tame, and it wasn’t until the 1999 redesign that the Mustang started to once again look a bit more menacing thanks to sharper contours, larger wheel arches, new bodywork creases, and numerous other changes. 23 photos
Some of those late fourth-gen versions are relatively desirable to this day, and this 2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1 fits that bill rather well. The car is on its way to the highest bidder through Cars and Bids, and while it’s not exactly mint (123,000 miles/198,000 km), it does look well maintained, both inside and out.
