Dessert and Bubble Gum: Analyzing the 1968-69 Shirriff and O-Pee-Chee Hockey Sets

May 3, 2021 By Joachim Brouwer

I remember like it was yesterday, peering over the formica dining table with its spindly steel legs, eagerly watching my mother empty the contents  of  3 1/4- inch by 2 3/4-inch inch box of Shirriff jelly crystals into a mixing bowl. The red, yellow or green sticky granular substance mixed with water and set upon by some kind or other of alchemical magic or so it … [Read more...] about Dessert and Bubble Gum: Analyzing the 1968-69 Shirriff and O-Pee-Chee Hockey Sets

December 29, 2020 By Rich Mueller

There was a burglary at a northern Indiana hobby shop last week.  Police in Elkhart, IN, near South Bend, say someone entered F&G Sports Cards in the wee hours of Christmas Eve and stole about $11,000 worth of merchandise.

After Nearly 30-Year Hiatus, O-Pee-Chee Baseball Cards Returned in 1965

March 26, 2020 By Anson Whaley

In 1937, O-Pee-Chee introduced a set of baseball cards.  With a unique 'pop-out' design, they were intended to offer a three-dimensional look. The cards were black and white and included many popular players of the day, including Bob Feller, Joe DiMaggio, and Hank Greenberg. The cards of all three players are from relatively early in their careers and the card of Feller, … [Read more...] about After Nearly 30-Year Hiatus, O-Pee-Chee Baseball Cards Returned in 1965

Nolan Ryan Rookie Card Prices Continue Upward Trend

June 15, 2016 By Rich Mueller

Ramblings: O-Pee-Chee and Free Agency in the 70s

December 6, 2015 By Rich Klein

Phil Roof 1977 OPC

It’s the season for mammoth new free agent contracts in baseball. Zack Greinke is  a Diamondback and David Price is a member of the Boston Red Sox after signing a contract which might be worth upwards of $215 million. The reason I say “might be” is there is an opt-out clause after the first three seasons. However, if the contract goes the full length he will earn more money … [Read more...] about Ramblings: O-Pee-Chee and Free Agency in the 70s
