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.

Baseball card collecting terms (part A)
Airbrushing is the art of touching up a photo prior to the card being printed.
It was generally done to remove imperfections or update or hide a players
jersey/cap logo. Because of advancements in print technology and computers this is
no longer needed.
All-Star card (AS) usually a subset card picturing a player who participated in the
previous season’s all-star game. Topps created these in their 1958 High Number
issue and has continued the practice fairly regularly to date. Such cards
are usually designated in price guides with the abbreviation of AS.
Assorted A general mix of cards often containing many duplicates.
Auction items are sold to the highest bidder. Auctions used to be live
or thru the mail/phone but today most auctions are online.
Auction Catalog lists the rules and descriptions and often images
of the items in an auction.
Authentication verification that an item (card, autograph) is genuine. Most "game-used"
material inserts have a written declaration of authenticity on the reverse.
Authorized Issue card or memorabilia item that has been properly licensed. If
the item is of a player, his written permission must be given in order for it to be considered authorized.
