Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! A vintage 1969-70 Topps hockey card featuring Hall of Fame player Gordie Howe of the Detroit Red Wings. The front of the card displays a color photograph of Howe in his red home jersey, framed by a graphic hockey stick border design characteristic of this set. The player’s name and team name are printed vertically along the right side, and a blue circle in the upper right corner identifies his position as Wing. The reverse of the card is numbered 61 and contains Howe’s biographical information, including his age (41), height, weight, and home in Lathrup Village, Michigan. It also lists his NHL career records through the 1968-69 season. The reverse includes a yellow-background box with a perforated stamp outline labeled “PLACE GORDIE HOWE STAMP HERE,” which is unused. The card is marked “© T.C.G. PRINTED IN U.S.A.” along the top border of the reverse.
