Don't you remember as a kid buying a stack of packs and getting the same GDMF cards in sequence repeatedly? Used to happen all the time in Topps packs in the 1970s. One year I remember getting a Sixto Lezcano in every pack, or so it seemed. I also know that there are some folks who've deciphered the sorting sequence and know from looking at a cello pretty much who will be in there.

The 1958 set is a 132 card issue, so one sheet. No SPs. Cellos had 12 cards per. 9.1% of a set in each pack, so your odds of getting a Brown randomly are 1:11.
