(Won't let me add 4th pic for some reason?)

There is also another version.In short they call it the black bottom variation.For years everyone just thought they
were terrible miscut cards.But it has since been confirmed that it is a legitimate variation. On the front of the card
the black will run all the way to the bottom with no white boarder on the bottom. Do a search on eBay and you
can easily see what I mean.Also check the very high asking prices on these cards as compared to the regular AS cards.

Thanks Winston.
I purchased this Black Bottom Bobby Orr a few years ago.
It is, however, the only one I have.

I have had them all at one point in time.Once I knew about the variation I would buy everyone
I seen at shows or flea markets.The only one I have left is Jacques Laperriere.

Happy to finish the year with an Orr item I have been waiting to add to the collection, a 1966 Oshawa Generals Premium. Hard to believe that it's a highest graded as a PSA 1.5. Also added a junior hockey program featuring Bobby Orr and the Oshawa Generals along with a ticket to one of Orr's final Junior Hockey games. Can't wait to see what the new year brings.

It is interesting that there are four future Boston Bruins in that program. Along with Orr there are Cashman and Beverly with Oshawa and Ace Bailey with Edmonton.
