Patrick Roy 1986-87 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Card

This item is a vintage O-Pee-Chee hockey trading card featuring goaltender Patrick Roy of the Montreal Canadiens, specifically from what appears to be the 1986-87 season, identifiable by the card's design and the player's early career appearance. The card is rectangular, made of card stock, and displays a full-color portrait photograph of Roy in his red Canadiens goalie jersey (number 33), wearing full goalie pads, gloves, and a mask, set against what looks like a hockey rink background. The overall color scheme of the card is vibrant, with a distinct teal-blue border around the photograph and a thinner white inner border. The upper left corner features the 'O-Pee-Chee' logo. At the bottom, a pink-red banner contains the text 'PATRICK ROY' in white, with 'MONTREAL CANADIENS' below it. To the right of his name, the iconic 'CH' logo of the Montreal Canadiens is prominently displayed within a circle. The card shows signs of typical wear for its age, including slight softening or wear on the corners and edges, consistent with being handled or stored over time. The surface appears to have minimal creasing or major damage, though detailed assessment would require higher resolution images and examination of the reverse side. The card maintains good color saturation and image clarity, suggesting it has been reasonably well-preserved. There are no obvious manufacturing defects or significant marks beyond standard aging. This card represents a significant collectible for hockey enthusiasts, particularly due to Patrick Roy's Hall of Fame career and the card being from his rookie or early years.
