In the world of sports card collecting, certain cards stand out not just for their aesthetic appeal, but for the stories they encapsulate and the nostalgia they evoke. One such card is the 1990 O-Pee-Chee Premier #50 rookie card featuring the legendary Jaromir Jagr.
Born in Kladno, Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic) on February 15, 1972, Jaromir Jagr's passion for hockey ignited at an early age. Excelling in the sport, Jagr swiftly rose through the ranks, catching the eye of NHL scouts with his extraordinary talent.
In the 1990 NHL Entry Draft, the Pittsburgh Penguins made a historic move by selecting Jagr as their fifth overall pick. Little did they know, they were drafting a future Hall of Famer who would leave an indelible mark on the sport.
Notable Stats and Accomplishments:
Jagr's NHL career spans over three decades, during which he amassed an impressive array of accolades. With 1,921 points, he ranks second in all-time NHL scoring. He's a two-time Stanley Cup champion, a five-time Art Ross Trophy winner, and a Hart Memorial Trophy recipient, among numerous other honors.
At the time of this documentary, Jaromir Jagr continues to lace up his skates, defying the conventional notions of age in professional sports. Now in his early 50s, he's still actively involved in hockey, displaying the same passion and dedication that defined his illustrious career.
1990-91 O-Pee-Chee Premier Hockey is a small set of only 132 cards. However, It has several strong rookie cards including, Jeremy Roenick, Sergei Fedorov, Mike Modano, Mats Sundin, Curtis Joseph, and Jaromir Jagr.
Card #50 of the set showcases a young Jaromir Jagr in his Pittsburgh Penguins uniform, poised and ready for action. The front features a classic, clean image with a white border and a small frame around the player image that is color coordinated in a Penguins yellow. On the reverse side, there is an orange-to-red gradient background with a headshot and stats layered on top.
As of the latest data, there are over 17,000 (17,943) professionally graded copies of this iconic card in existence. Among them, PSA (Professional Sports Authenticator) alone has graded the most with 12,162 total cards graded. With 3,630 of those receiving the highest grade of PSA 10, 6,298 PSA 9s, and 1,610 of PSA 8s. Despite being one of the highest graded hockey cards of all time, the Jaromir Jager rookie card remains a collector’s favorite.

Beyond its monetary value, the card symbolizes a pivotal moment in hockey history, immortalizing the emergence of a generational talent.
