1969 OPC Variation
Quote:
I collect Orioles cards and have two different backs for the 1969 OPC Orioles Rookies card #66. Ptd. in Canada is farther right on the top card and more left on the lower card. Since I only collect the Orioles, I'm not sure if other Rookie Stars cards have the same variation. 1969 OPC #66 Variation.jpg Also, the 1967 OPC Checklist #62, with Frank Robinson has two different backs. The copyright symbol is under the R on one version and the T on the other. I will try and post pictures tomorrow. Last edited by BaltOrioles; 10-30-2020 at 09:24 PM. |

You're right, I forgot about that one.

That '71 Ryan is way cool. The backs on the 71's are so much better than the Topps version.

Agree. I wonder why OPC changed the backs on the semi-highs and high series to English only.

Agree on the backs of the '71s. It has baffled my why they redesigned the backs of the '71s while leaving the backs of other years virtually the same as the US Topps issue.

Always loved the OPC cards as a kid - grew up close enough to Canada to pick some up whenever we crossed the border. The gum was much better than Topps. I have a bunch of wrappers I have had since 78 or 79 and I came across them a few years ago - I could still smell the gum and it was like being instantly transported back 40 years!
The 1971 backs are night and day better than the gray, green, black and white mess of the backs of the Topps counterparts. Thanks for the scans - lots of great memories! |

Great O Pee Chee
I have been a fan of the O Pee Chee's for years - WAY under appreciated issues with only a fraction of the production of Topps US issues. Some favorites from my Clemente collection.
