1977-78 O-Pee-Chee WHA Hockey Card # 41 John McKenzie - Whalers (EX)

Description: 1977-78 O-Pee-Chee WHA Hockey Card # 41 John McKenzie - Whalers (EX) 1970-1979 Hockey CardsMore big names made their debut in the 1970s and the decade has proven to be very popular with collectors. The main products were offered by Topps and O-Pee-Chee, abbreviated as OPC. While the look of OPC and Topps cards are very similar, OPC cards are usually more valuable. The decade also features OPC cards for a competing league to the NHL, the World Hockey Association (WHA).One big name owned the hobby during the 1970s. Wayne Gretzky, also known as “The Great One,” is still one of the top hockey icons for collectors, and his rookie card is revered in much the same way as Michael Jordan’s rookie card is for basketball collectors. Other rookie cards that are on collectors’ radars include Bryan Trottier, Gilbert Perreault, Darryl Sittler, Guy Lafleur, Mark Howe, Marcel Dionne, Doug Wilson, Ken Dryden, Bob Clarke, and Denis Potvin.1977-78 O-Pee-Chee WHA Hockey is the final set the card maker produced for the failing league. The set has a smaller checklist than in years past and no major rookie cards.Product Details1977-78 was the last year of a four-year run where O-Pee-Chee made a separate set of players from the World Hockey Association. It wasn't the league's last year, though. It lasted until the next year before many of the teams ran out of money and four of the clubs were allowed to join the NHL. Sensing the coming contraction of the league, 1977-78 O-Pee-Chee WHA Hockey was cut in half to 66 cards. The subsets were among the things to disappear.1977-78 O-Pee-Chee WHA Hockey card fronts feature a player photo that is either posed or taken during game play. Two different colored stripes under the picture resemble a hockey stick and include the player's name, team and position. A team logo is placed just above that, partially superimposed over the photo. Backs are vertically oriented and include information inside a series of rectangles. The one at the top has a biography in English. The next one has vital stats and the statistical lines for the previous season and the player's career. A French translation of the biography follows. Finally, a box in the lower left corner has a card number, with a brown stripe extending along then bottom of the card that contains the player's name.The leader cards and All-Star subsets of the previous years are gone from 1977-78 O-Pee-Chee WHA Hockey. However, the one checklist card remained. Card number 1 was the only other deviation from the base set, commemorating the the one-thousandth goal of Gordie Howe's career.We believe that all our listings are 100% Original and Authentic unless otherwise noted.
