1930-1939
Hockey cards from the 1930s featured landmark releases including the 1933 Ice Kings set, the 33’ World Wide Gum set, and the 1933 O-Pee-Chee issue, with additional notable rookie cards appearing in the 1936 and 1939 O-Pee-Chee sets. Produced during the Great Depression. The O-Pee-Chee sets featured goalie rookies that have a clean, Art Deco-inspired design, richly coloured backgrounds, hand-tinted portraits, and elegant typography—perhaps offering early goalie collectors a welcome splash of colour during difficult times. The decade introduced the goalie rookie cards of legends like Lorne Chabot, Turk Broda, Frank Brimsek, and Tiny Thompson.
