Always an enticing set for collectors to add to their inventory, the 1970-71 O-Pee-Chee release consisted of bright colours and a 264-card checklist, with this complete assembly of the release up for grabs here. In an overall consistent EX condition range, the rookie class includes key offerings of Brad Park (EX – 80/20 centering), Gilbert Perreault (VG – small crease at the top left), Bobby Clarke (EX/EX-MT – small corner ding at the top right) and Darryl Sittler (EX – slight corner wear). Of course, the star card offerings are led by Bobby Orr with his regular (#3) offering seen in G/VG vicinity with round corners and a small crease while his all-star (#236) better off, in EX range, showing slight corner wear. Other cards worth noting include those of 1-Cheevers (EX-MT), 11-Esposito (VG – top right corner ding), 15-Hull (EX – 90/10 centering), 29-Howe (EX-MT+), 55-Beliveau (EX – off-center top-to-bottom with a small smudge at the top left), 231-Sawchuk (EX – corner wear), 235-Hull AS (VG-EX/EX – corner wear) and 238-Howe AS (EX – 90/10 centering). The checklist cards, #24 and #132 respectively, are seen in EX and G/VG vicinity respectively with the first neatly partially marked while the latter is marked messily and poorly. A wonderful trip down memory lane, don’t let these pass you by!
