A lot of collectors pay the most attention to the front. Lots of the cards have neat stuff on the back. I will post hockey only for now. TML fan

1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Cesare Maniago. Maybe the only time I've seen the word 'pleasant' used to describe a player on a card. 13 cities in 9 years obviously includes non NHL teams. Six games in six nights is quite a feat as well no matter what league.

Here is the #1 card of Dick Gamble from the first Topps hockey card set from 1954-55. Love the cartoon. Makes sense a goalie with no mask. No such thing back in the day.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@Gotimgotimneed1 Well there you have it. Thanks for that!

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

Here is the back of Gerry Odrowski's card from the 1974-75 OPC WHA set. Gerry played 309 NHL games & 282 WHA games. Not sure how many NHL players were born in Trout Creek, Ontario? I'm guessing the cartoon on the card would not be used this day and age.

@hockeymedia @NHLBruinsAlumni Nice looking rookie card too. Thanks for adding it.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

A well handled 1971-72 O-Pee-Chee Gerry Cheevers. I bet a lot of you didn't know Cheevers played his first two NHL games as a Leaf. His other 416 NHL games were all as a Bruin. I just found out a few years back. Even though it says it right on the card!!!!

@JoeyD6067 @SalmingandMe The way it is supposed to be done.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

1971-72 O-Pee-Chee Gary Dornhoefer. Seems there were a few pro or assistant pro golfers playing in the NHL back in the day. Summer job! Gary won two cups with Philly. He had one 30 goal season. 1291 career PIM.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@JoeyD6067 Yes. A young fella for sure.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@AJSmith_GoHabs No give at all back then

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@JoeyD6067 I was just looking at his 1964 Topps rookie card with the Bruins on line a few days ago.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@SalmingandMe That's a great story. Thanks for sharing. Nice souvenir.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@JruGordon37 Good old OPC. Thanks for adding this.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

1973-74 O-Pee-Chee Michel Plasse. Started all the goal scoring by professional goalies. Dryden's backup. Played for 6 NHL teams including his first and only game with STL in 1970-71.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@JruGordon37 I never noticed that before. I'll have to have a look.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

1968-69 OPC Mike Walton. Just look at him 'shake' in that carton.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@punchsays @Bigshooter2324 @SalmingandMe @MjbOriginal @icraig9 Might be.

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

Here is a 1964-65 Topps Doug Robinson. It is likely very simple but can someone help me out with what the cartoon means? As well this may be the only hockey card in history to use the word 'retarded' on it. Not in a bad way. @Bigshooter2324 @SalmingandMe @MjbOriginal @icraig9

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

@mcuggy @SalmingandMe @Bigshooter2324 @MjbOriginal @icraig9 Could be?

[Stephen Taylor @thebacksofcards]

As I have done in the past I am featuring two cards today that were used as extra packing material for an older card I received in the mail. I love all cards. here are 2011-12 Donruss Matt Stajan & Michael Frolik. Very similar stats and statures!
