1971 O-Pee-Chee/OPC Baseball Cards
O-Pee-Chee is also called OPC and Topps Canadian.
Most vintage OPC sets were near replicas of their Topps brothers
in the exact same design, with the major difference being the
French & English backs. But in 1971, O-Pee-Chee made
several changes to their set including a complete redesign of
the card backs. OPC also changed over 20 cards including the
creation of the first "Traded" cards along with adding more EXPOS
to the set including #202 and #289.
1971 OPC's short prints are legendary, at only 5% of Topps' production, making this set very rare even in Canada. Some say 1971 OPC short print high numbers are even scarcer than the very, very scarce 1952 Topps highs, that mostly ended up being dumped deep into the Atlantic ocean.
The Semi-High #'s 524-643 are VERY, VERY costly on eBay and
elsewhere on the internet and the High #'s are INSANE !!!
ROOKIES included Hall-of-Famer Bert Blyleven,
Steve Garvey, Davey Concepcion, Bobby Valentine,
George Foster, Dusty Baker...

It's cool to have a card of your favorite player.
It's even cooler to have your favorite player's jersey or bat.
Well just think how cool it is to have a card of your favorite player
embedded with a piece of his bat or jersey that he used in a real major league game !!!
That's the concept that Upper Deck dazzled the hobby with in 1996. Ever since the
hobby has been in love with Game-Used memorabilia cards and they have become a
staple of sportscard collecting. Originally they were very scarce inserts with
less than 1 every few boxes. Now these insert cards are so popular that
many products include one in every pack.
