Information for the avid 1970's hockey card collector. We talk price, condition, grading, about the players, history of hockey cards and the importance of the 70's decade on hockey card collecting.

Ok, I know this blog was supposed to be about 1970's hockey cards but every time I turn around there is something else that side tracks me and I feel compelled to do a "memory recall" of these neat little treasures.
In 1968 Post Cereal introduced a little plastic game board and 30 picture marbles. Now, the marbles came two to a box of cereal and you had to order the neat little game board or "rink".
There were 30 plastic marbles in all. Fifteen blue which represented the Toronto Maple Leafs and fifteen red which represented the Montreal Canadians.
Cost for the complete set in todays market in near mint condition can run close to $400 or better.
