1973 O-Pee-Chee Baseball Cards
& Complete Team Sets
1973 O-Pee-Chee baseball, the Canadian verison of 1973 Topps, both
contained 660 cards and were nearly identical in design. The
1973 O-Pee-Chee(OPC) cards, of course were in both French & English
with 'Made in Canada' on back.
Card #1 one is super-cool, picturing the All-Time Home Run Kings
(at the time) Babe Ruth, Willie Mays and Hank Aaron.
Top rookies were Hall-of-Famers Mike Schmidt and Goose Gossage.
Not Hall-of-Famers but darn good were rookies Bob Boone & Dwight Evans.

Baseball card collecting terms (part D-F)
Die-Cut A special card that differs from a basic card by
"Die-Cutting", cutting away portions of the card to create a special design.
Most are serially numbered & limited.
Error Card Baseball card history is filled with error cards,
many of them very interesting. Hank Aaron is on 2 of my favorite error cards.
Aaron's 1956 Topps card action photo shows Aaron sliding home but
it is actually Willie Mays not Aaron. Topps again goofed on Aaron's 1957
"reversed negative" card showing Aaron batting left-handed.
"Error Cards" are usually found early in print runs and often corrected.
When this correction happens a VARIATION is created.
Some variations are extremely interesting and very expensive while others
are totally boring and you wonder why they were even made.
Extended Set Also frequently called Update Set or
Traded Set.
They are sets issued after the original release to update the regular set
with new and traded players.
Facsimile Autograph is an autograph printed on a card to show
what the player's actual signature looks like. They are not "real" autographs.
Factory Set are complete sets usually in special boxes
produced by the manufacturer. "Hand-Collated Sets" are sets collectors
have put together card by card from packs.
