Gary Edwards #155 Los Angeles Kings (EX-MT 6)
Add depth to your vintage hockey portfolio with this second clean example of the 1971-72 O-Pee-Chee Gary Edwards #155 card. This classic collectible profiles the resilient netminder Gary Edwards in his bright gold Los Angeles Kings uniform framed by the iconic blue and black oval border style. Edwards was drafted by the St. Louis Blues before establishing his presence in Southern California, anchoring the blue paint with determination. Vintage goaltender items from this specific year are highly sought after due to the vibrant team logos and playful cartoon drawings included on the reverse side. This authentic specimen features the classic O-Pee-Chee bilingual back with text presented in English and French, offering an nostalgic snapshot of Canadian sports card manufacturing history that appeals deeply to international and domestic hobby enthusiasts alike.
An itemized Condition Report reveals a solid mid-grade specimen that aligns with a raw grade estimate of EX 5. The card front shows slightly better centering than its counterpart, presenting a well-balanced profile within the thick white frame lines. The corners show slightly more visible rounding and fiber wear upon closer inspection, particularly on the lower edge tips. The edges remain solid but show minor traces of standard vintage cardstock chipping along the dark borders. No structural creases or surface wrinkles are present on either side of the cardboard. The reverse side remains free from stray ink or pencil marks, showing consistent gray-brown paper grain that makes it a perfect, clean candidate for set builders looking to finish their legendary 1971-72 checklists.
