An inviting NM 7 example of Tony Esposito's 1969-70 O-Pee-Chee rookie card highlights this all-"Tony O" offering, with card #138 recently graded by PSA. The write-up on the back sure had it right, reading in part "This rookie goaltender appears to be on the threshold of a brilliant career in the NHL", while the cartoon below informs that "Tony shut-out Canadiens twice before the season was two months old". Tony went on that '69-70 season to set the modern day record with 15 shutouts to earn both the Calder and Vezina Trophies. His banner season is highlighted in three '70-71 OPC cards here; #s 237-All-Star (NM), 247-Calder Trophy (EX-MT+) and 250-Vezina Trophy (a small subtle wrinkle is detected - otherwise NM-MT). Also included in the raw six-pack are three Topps issues; '71-72 #110 (EX-MT) and 4-NHL Wins Leaders (NM), along with '72-73 #20 (EX-MT+).
