You'll see the color of the back matches other MBs, not the more gold regular issue cards. The regular Topps issues of these cards have white team names. The white team names were printing errors which were never corrected for the regular set. The Cox/Brinkman yellow team cards have been incorrectly included as variations in the regular Topps set for some time.

Regarding the partial sheet above, I agree that it is proof sheet. Although this isn't an MB sheet; the second and fourth rows from the top are all players which were included in the MB set. The sheet above actually is missing the first column (on left side) because each row should have 11 cards.

Another well deserved shout out to member and contributor Dr. Carlton Miller...please click this link for more comprehensive info regarding the 1968 MBs:
