1965 O-Pee-Chee/OPC
Baseball Cards

O-Pee-Chee issued their first baseball card set way back in 1937. It was so much fun they waited almost 30 years before they did it again in 1965, their first year of partnering with Topps to issue baseball cards for the Canadian market.
1965 OPC cards, like the following years, mimicked Topps' issue. In 1965 Topps came in with (598) cards, OPC only issued the first series of (283). 1965 O-Pee-Chee baseball cards can be distinguished by the grey card stock and "Printed in Canada" on back. There were no major errors or variations in 1965.
1965 OPC baseball cards could be considered rare with grading companies reporting the graded population of OPC at less than 2 percent of Topps.

How long have sports cards been around ? (part 2)

The first important and mainstream basketball set was issued by Bowman in 1948. Other than a Topps set in 1957-58 and a 1961-62 Fleer set, there were no mainstream basketball sets issued until Topps started producing yearly sets beginning with their 1969-70 set featuring the rookie card of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who then went under the name of Lew Alcindor.

In hockey, there were a few sets issued in the 1910's and while O-Pee-Chee issued some sets in the 1930's, the real modern sets began in 1951 with the itroduction of Parkhurst's first set.

In racing, while cards go back as far as the early Indy car days of 1911, modern racing sets began in 1988 with the issues released by MAXX.
