Random Card of the Day

Year: 2008

Set: Upper Deck - 1969 O-Pee-Chee Reprints (Rate)

Card: #OPC-RB Ryan Braun


“ Gotta give UD credit for the gumption to use a Topps design via the O-Pee-Chee angle. But...it's not a reprint. This guy was in his second year in the league...to be a reprint he would have had to have been in the League in 1969, with a card in the original set. Proper names matter to me, even if they don't to Upper Deck! ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Super bland. ” -carthage44

“ Ah, UD flipping Topps the bird by buying out OPC and being able to use the vintage designs. Not a bad front but the back is bland and not even close to accurate. Well, have to say 2018 Topps Heritage did it way better. ” -IfbBirdsCards

“ Eerily similar to 1969 Topps...or 2018 Heritage...not a rip off AT ALL! ” -beansballcardblog

“ The only word that comes to mind is "blah". ” -kents_stuff

“ Why reprint something so bland? The actual 1969 OPC cards look so much better. ” -NJDevils

“ Pretty cool looking card. I love the 69 design. ” -parsley24

“ A bit of a stretch to call this a reprint. Especially the back; not even close. ” -C2Cigars

“ I feel like the O-Pee-Chee stuff works for Hockey better than baseball in the modern millennia. This card is ok. Almost has a minor league look to it. ” -muskie027

“ Love retro cards. They need to rethink the set title though, a newly made card using a vintage design is not a "reprint". ” -captkirk42

Reprint?  Anyway...remakes are usually not as good as the original.

The card would be alright if the front was as good/appealing as the back but that's only one opinion...
