I agree. The 1965 cards were the current ones at the time of the World Series.
The only problem with that reasoning - this problem applies to all years, but I'll stay with '65 since that's the year under discussion - is, what do you with a card of a player on the '65 team whose '65 card shows him on a different team?
Today (2019) we have update sets and traded sets and 60 million different sets, so even though Marcus Stroman's 2019 base Topps card shows him with Toronto, I'm sure someone assembling a similar display for the World Champion New York Mets
will be able to find a '19 pasteboard showing him in the orange and blue, but for the vintage sets that's a dilemma the person putting the display together will have to decide for himself.
