1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Rogatien Vachon #165 Montreal Canadiens (VG 3)

Add a Hall of Fame goalie to your vintage set with this 1969-70 O-Pee-Chee Rogatien Vachon #165. Despite the visible surface wear, this card remains a vital piece for collectors documenting the history of the Montreal Canadiens. Vachon was a key figure in Montreal’s late 60s dominance, earning three Stanley Cups before moving on to individual brilliance with the Los Angeles Kings. The 1969-70 set is cherished for its "puck-on-ice" graphic and the early careers of expansion-era stars. The card's back features the classic O-Pee-Chee bilingual format with English and French text, including career highlights from his award-winning 1967-68 season. This is a perfect "filler" card for a mid-to-low grade set builder.

Condition Report:
This card is graded as VG 3 due to a visible surface crease running through the player portrait. The corners exhibit softening and light rounding. Chipping is present along the wood-grain edges, typical for the rough-cut O-Pee-Chee stock of this era. Centering is approximately 75/25 toward the bottom right. The bilingual back remains clean and easy to read, with no writing or major paper loss.

Grade Estimate:
VG 3. with surface creasing and corner softening.
