    Upper Deck’s 2014-15 NHL® O-Pee-Chee Wrapper Redemption Program Returns to Can

    For the last two years the only thing that has been more popular than collecting the new set of NHL® O-Pee-Chee is collecting hobby wrappers from the product. Fans have taken those wrappers to their local card shop to have them send in for special red bordered bonus packs. The only problem was that last season, there was so much demand for these packs, we ran out quicker than anticipated. We have worked to make sure we have a solid inventory this season and the program should be awesome.

    What a weird way to word it. It's like saying that the wrappers are worth more than the contents of the packs.

    And what is a "Mini Tall Boy"? Isn't that just a Parkhurst Mini?

    Should be a cool promo for those that get in on OPC...and there are many who do in a big way.

    I've seen "mini tall boys" in football and the dimensions are significantly taller than what we are used to with a regular mini.

    From the pics, it appears that the Mini Tall Boy is a standard height narrow card, which addresses the ever-present storage concerns on any "tall" product.

    Mini Tall Boys is a neat idea. As others have pointed out: The problem with tall boys is the storage. Can't go in boxes, binders, etc with your other stuff. Top loaders or sleeves are available... but a pain to work with. Nice retroy design on them.

    I did buy some binder sheets to handle the 64-65 Parkie issue back in the 90's - I've since moved most of my collection OUT of binders, but that one sticks around as I don't know what else to do with it! LOL

    "Mini tall boys". Funny name. It's like saying the "worlds tallest midget"!

    But it's something refreshing, which is what I always liked about the OPC wrapper redemptions
