1971 O-Pee-Chee/OPC Baseball Cards

1971 OPC O-Pee-Chee baseball card front 1971 OPC O-Pee-Chee baseball card back 1971 Topps Steve Garvey baseball card back Also called OPC and Topps Canadian, most vintage OPC sets were near replicas of their Topps brothers. Exact same design, the major difference was the French & English backs.

OPC did make several changes to their 1971 set including a complete redesign of the card backs. OPC also changed over 20 cards including the first "Traded" cards and added more EXPOS cards 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 where most ended up being dumped deep into the Atlantic ocean.

Baseball card collecting terms (part G)

Grade/Condition Centering, corner wear, photo clarity, edges, creases, print flaws ... all combine to determine a card's condition or grade. Along with rarity/scarcity it is the major factor in a card's value.

Graded Card As values increased the condition of cards and the determination of fakes and alterations became increasingly more important. Various companies became "graders" of your cards. For a fee they would grade your card (usually on a 1 to 10 scale) and then placed in a sealed plastic holder with labelling of the vital information.

From past experiences, most people are NOT HAPPY with the grades they receive. To keep values up, graders can be extremely picky. Things you don't see, they do so don't be surprized when the NEAR MINT card you send in ends up with an EX or EX/MINT grade.

There are TOO many grading companies - if you do, do choose carefully. PSA / SGC / GAI / BGS are some of the many companies. It is good to know that getting a card graded by a company that people do not recognize or respect will usually just cost you time and money and not help you in any way.
