The top rookie card in the 1969-70 O-Pee-Chee set belongs to Tony Esposito of the Chicago Blackhawks. Other important RC’s belong to Serge Savard of the Montreal Canadiens and Pat Quinn of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The set also includes a special ‘Mr. Hockey’ hockey card featuring Gordie Howe. There is a version of this card with a number and without a number. Both versions are valued almost equally.
The Topps sister set has just 132 cards and is valued considerably less. This set lacks the Tony Esposito rookie card and Serge Savard’s RC is the highest valued first year hockey card.
#219 Ted Harris (All Star) does not show hockey card
Thanks for pointing that out Stefano – all fixed up!
