Smooth edges and barely a crease or touched corner throughout this 1976-77 O-Pee-Chee complete set, with the vast majority of cards high grade and dozens upon dozens of MINT cards to be discovered. There are a couple of issues to be aware of though, namely involving the first 30 cards or so and especially the first dozen. Some type of apparent moisture has left the first dozen warped and feeling grainy, with a total of 40 or so cards affected by a subtle stain, oftentimes in the middle of the upper border (similar to that observed on the Borje Salming and Marcel Dionne cards). With that said, there are oodles of submission candidates, with smooth, smooth edges and sharp corners striking the beholder. The key Bryan Trottier rookie card is off-centered but otherwise NM-MT, similar to that of the Tiger Williams RC, although the latter has better centering. We see the #213-Bobby Orr card at NM-MT, while 200-Ken Dryden has a lightly dinged upper left corner (EX-MT). Other big names from the 1970s who are present are Hall of Fame legends Lafleur, Robinson, Potvin, Clarke, Sittler, McDonald, Gainey and Perreault. All team checklists, as well as the three checklists, are unmarked, with the #258 checklist miscut. There are close to four dozen (46) rookie cards, with that lineup including Doug Jarvis, Dennis Maruk, Bob Sauve, Bob Murray, Mel Bridgman, Bob MacMillan, Dave Maloney and Guy Chouinard.
