When the time came for “The Great One” to hang up his skates in 1999, he was well-aware of the value of his jerseys.
That’s why Wayne Gretzky wore four jerseys for his final game for the Rangers — one in warm-ups and one for each period.
The jersey Gretzky wore pre-game and for the first period is now on the auction block at Classic Auctions, with bidding currently sitting just below $100,000.
Another jersey from the game sold for $715,120 in 2023. His final jersey from the third period of the game now sits in the Hall of Fame.
