Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his cherished Rookie Card appearance. Among a total of nearly 1,000 copies recorded in PSA’s census reporting, just two examples have achieved a higher tier. Bobby Orr's rookie card is extremely scarce and desirable, and it's among the most widely sought-after of all hockey cards from any era. The card pictures a very young Bobby Orr, who had not even played a game in the NHL at the time the piece was issued. Orr went on to become, without question, the greatest defenseman in the history of hockey. This example of Orr's rookie card has amazing, pack-fresh attributes. All four of its corners are sharp, and there is virtually no chipping or wear on the wood-patterned borders. The card's original gloss is bright and unbroken. An exceptional specimen of a very tough-to-find period collectible. Crisp Near Mint to Mint condition.
