Mark,
I love the challenge of the O-Pee-Chee sets. Unless you collect them, you don't realize how hard they are to find in nice shape. OPC has a history of miscut and poorly centered cards. Several 1968 OPC cards were cut short from the factory, making the #2 AL Leaders card very tough to find with decent borders. I'm close to completely my Orioles team sets, but in addition to the 1968 Leader card, the 1967, 1971 and 1974 sets all have some hard to find cards that have eluded me.
Here's the OPC version of one of my favorite cards as a kid.
