Description

1971-72 O-Pee-Chee Tom Webster #78 Detroit Red Wings This original vintage sports card captures Detroit Red Wings right wing Tom Webster during a pivotal moment in his early professional career. Webster was highly regarded for his offensive instincts and quick release, leading the team in scoring during the prior season, a feat proudly highlighted in the bilingual English and French biographical text on the reverse. The reverse side utilizes the classic dual-language format standard for Canadian distributions and includes a comical cartoon note regarding his hometown origin of Kirkland Lake. The presentation features bold coloration with the signature large team branding header block at the top. An examination of the card condition highlights slightly touched corners with minor softening at the tips. The edges are remarkably straight with minimal chipping present along the vulnerable back borders. The image centering is shifted slightly towards the bottom-left on the front face, which is common for this high-volume printing run. Given the bright colors, lack of surface creases, and overall solid preservation, this piece earns a conservative Grade Estimate: EX-MT 6
