Guy Lafleur 1st Team All Star Montreal Canadiens Hockey Card Appraisal

Guy Lafleur 1st Team All-Star Montreal Canadiens Hockey Card

This item is a vintage hockey trading card featuring Guy Lafleur, an iconic player for the Montreal Canadiens. The card has a dominant teal blue border with an inner orange and white frame surrounding the central image. The player's name, 'GUY LAFLEUR', is printed at the top left in white text on the teal border, followed by '• RW' (Right Wing). Below this, 'MONTREAL CANADIENS' is prominently displayed in orange lettering within the orange frame. The main image depicts Guy Lafleur in a profile view, looking to the left, wearing a red hockey jersey. Part of a hockey stick, which appears to be branded 'KOHO', is visible on the left side of the image. In the bottom right corner of the picture, the Montreal Canadiens 'CH' logo is visible within a circular emblem. A banner at the bottom of the card, also within the orange frame, reads '1st Team ALL*STAR' in white text. The card shows visible signs of age and handling. The corners are softened and slightly rounded, particularly the top two, indicating wear. There are some white specks or scuffs along the edges and within the teal border, suggesting surface wear. The color saturation appears good, though there might be slight fading consistent with its age. The overall construction is that of a standard cardboard trading card from the era, likely mass-produced. The condition suggests it has been circulated and not kept in mint condition, which would impact its collector's value. Based on the uniform style and the '1st Team ALL*STAR' designation, this card likely dates to the late 1970s or early 1980s, common for hockey card sets of that period.
