1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Set Details
1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Hockey increased its set size to 231 cards. The decision was made to incorporate equipment into the design as well.
Card fronts feature a player picture, usually a posed shot against a concrete wall. A team logo is inside the picture in the upper left corner. The player's name and team appear below the picture in the white area that forms the border. To the right is a graphic hockey stick, with a solid-colored puck in the lower right that contains the player's position.
1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Hockey backs are printed in blue and yellow and are vertically oriented. A circle in the upper left corner includes the card number, with the player's name, team and position aligned beside it. They are followed by two lines of vital stats. In the yellow area is a short biography in both French and English, followed by either a cartoon about the player or a place to affix a stamp that was included inside the wax packages. Stats appear along the bottom noting year and career numbers.
1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Hockey was issued in two series. The first is 132 cards. The second includes 99 cards. Card #193 of Gordie Howe can be found with or without a number on the back. Card #205 of Phil Esposito is also found with two different numbers on the front. Cards #205 through #210 feature the previous year's award winners and cards #211 through #222 feature All-Star players. Cards #223 through #231 show several trophies and two checklist cards are featured in the set.
1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Hockey has two firsts: players are shown with their natural backgrounds instead of being superimposed against a generic background, and lifetime numbers appear for the first time on the backs.
Any card that has a stamp attached to its back is considered damaged. The only notable rookies in the set are Tony Esposito and Serge Savard.
Inserts include All-Star Stamps in 1st Series and 4-in-1 Minis and Team Albums in 2nd Series.

Two cards which are often overlooked for errors and corrections ie. 193 Howe and 205 Esposito are cards numbered 226 Vezina Trophy and 228 James Norris Trophy, error..226 without name of Bobby Orr and correction with the name of Bobby Orr (in yellow ink)… error…228 without the name of Phil Esposito and the correction with the name of Phil Esposito (in yellow ink)…only distributed in Canada…corrections where on the back of the cards…I have emailed PSA about these errors but have never received a response, the master set of 1969-70 O Pee Chee hockey should include these two cards ….
