O-Pee-Chee card sets from the second half of the 1970s are offered here and arrived at our headquarters the way they’ve been stored for many years, with each and every card placed in the thick soft sleeves that first made their appearance in the hobby – decades ago(!). Thus a type of grab bag is available as a thorough inspection and accurate assessment is difficult, but here’s what we can relay after examining the pulled star and rookie cards and glancing through the rest. Some sharp cards are among the 1975-76 set, with others exhibiting corner touches and the first and last (396-Snepsts RC)(VG) numbered cards, like with the other assemblies, showing markedly more wear. Unmarked team checklists are to note but that’s not the case with the less attractive ’76-77s, with some corner wear and even rounded corners observed, with a Bryan Trottier rookie card VG and a crease helping send 213-Bobby Orr to G. A mix of mostly EX to NM can be anticipated in the ’77-78 and ’78-79 sets, with Mike Bossy’s RC an EX contributor. Team checklists are not marked in the former group and are marked in the latter. Well over 1000 cards are to contemplate, with Hall of Famers Orr, Dryden, Lafleur, Dionne, Clarke, Potvin, Perreault, Sittler, Robinson and others showing up multiple times – ah, that ‘70s show!
