Default Wtb - 1973 opc 81a

I am looking to buy a 1973 O-Pee-Chee 81A Cubs coaches with trees in background - not the orange background.
Thanks.

Thanks.
Did OPC print both versions that year, as their Topps counterparts did?

Maybe check out COMC. They have the card you're looking for listed there.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I presume they did. The only guide I have just says "same as 73 Topps". Thanks, I will check out COMC.

I just checked COMC with no luck. They have the orange background like every place else I have checked. Maybe O-Pee-Chee did not do the varations??? I have asked one of the O-Pee-Chee guys on this site but no answer.

Wait, now I'm confused. Am I missing something?? The only ones I see at COMC are the 'natural background' versions. Here's one...

The ONLY variations that I am aware of OPC cards between 1965 and 1985 are two 1971 Pirates cards that have Pirates in red or yellow, Jackie Hernandez and a Rookie Stars (343?). If anyone knows of other variations please show them. ETA, it's the #27 Pirates Rookie Stars card.

You are not confused - this one is sometimes (as I did) referred to as the 'Orange background". Thanks.
