Presented is a 60-card complete set of 1954/55 Topps Hockey collectibles. This is the first-ever Topps hockey set, and it features players from four American teams: Detroit, New York, Chicago, and Boston. Hobbyists cherish these bold, large-sized items, and widely regard them as hockey's equivalent to the 1952 Topps Baseball series. The cards' uncluttered designs and red-white-and-blue theme, form what is arguably the finest-looking hockey series ever produced. In total, 11 cards have been graded by PSA.
