Bobby Orr, the Parry Sound, Ontario native who would leave an impression on the hockey world like no other player appears here on his 1966-67 Topps rookie card as he embarked on a sensational, all-too-short ten-year run as our sport's most exciting performer. Orr’s forever-in-demand card #35 of Topps' 1966-67 issue pictures Bobby at 18 and is an absolute prerequisite to an important cardboard collection. Part of the write-up on the back reads "...certainly will become one of the future stars in the NHL. A rushing defenseman who can set up goals as well as score them." Bobby indeed went on to forge his legacy as arguably the greatest player ever to lace on a pair of skates, rendering his rookie cards coveted. A highly desirable card, this particular copy of the famed Orr rookie card has recently been deemed to be "AUTHENTIC ALTERED" after inspection at PSA. Displaying exceptionally nice despite its technical grade, the card is slightly miscut and off-center but retains exceptional colours, smooth edges and relatively sharp corners that show only light touches of wear. Housed in an excellent condition PSA holder, don't miss out on adding this one to your vintage portfolio!
