1966 Topps Card Stock
I'm certain this has been covered elsewhere (though a search only found a thread related to the 1966 football set), but I was wondering if someone could just sum up the thinking on the reasons for the card stock differences in the 1966 baseball set - did Topps simply run out of one? I just finished putting a set together and I noticed the white stock seems to be rarer, and that it seems to be most prevalent in the 1st and 7th series - anything to that?
The fact that my Ranew, Groat, Uecker and Johnson "no trade" variations are all on the lighter stock makes me think that's what they started with.
Or, is there a more interesting story in there someplace?
