The 1975-76 O-Pee-Chee NHL hockey card set features 396 cards featuring players from the 18 teams in the league at the time. Surprisingly, the highest valued rookie card in the set belongs to Harold Snepsts of the Vancouver Canucks. The Snepsts RC, number 396, the final card in the collection, is valued at 20 times that of a common card.
Other important first year cards in the 1975-76 OPC series include Danny Gare of the Buffalo Sabres, Clark Gillies of the New York Islanders, Pierre Larouche of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Ron Greschner of the New York Rangers.
The most valuable hockey card in the set belongs to the great Bobby Orr of the Boston Bruins with Ken Dryden, Hall of Fame goalie with of the Montreal Canadiens, not far behind. The Habs were subject to several errors with the Yvan Cournoyer, Doug Risebrough, Guy Lafleur and Mario Tremblay cards all containing various forms of uncorrected errors. The Tremblay error was the worst with the wrong player pictured on the front.
