Default 1966 Topps 6th Series/Semi-Hi's

Putting together a 1966 set and am wondering as to whether there are any SPs in its penultimate series - do we have any real or faux slits out there I haven't been able to find?

I asked a similar question about the 1967 semis last year and it started quite a thread...

Default 1966 series 6

This is a 77 card series, so there will be short prints. I am not aware of any slits, faux or otherwise. Cliff and I have been working on this series for quite a while, but there are very few miscut to work with.

Unless a 1966 Topps 6th Series Slit shows up it will be nearly impossible to ever reconstruct that sheet, whoever Topps hired to cut sheets for that Series did a bang up job compared to all others in that era. I recently did an eBay search of quantities of each card in the 1966 6th Series and I came up with these 27 as definite 4x cards, Stanky, Azcue, Buchek, Lolich, Gibbon, McCool, Face, Rollins, Radatz, Bragan, Barber, Hannan, T John, Ferrara, Simmons, Bennett, Klippstein, McAuliffe, Aaron, O'Donoghue, L Green, S Hamilton, Belinsky, Wilhelm, Stigman, Wynn, Linz, and these 5 as probable 4x cards, Kline, B Rodgers, T Gonzalez, Stuart, B Lee. That's 32 out of 33 4x cards, pretty much all of the remaining 45 cards I didn't list are 3x (SP's).

Decided to take a serious look into the 1966 6th series today.

Did pop counts of the cards across eBay, COMC, PSA and Deans, and scoured all of those for miscuts.

I did come upon a couple not previously mentioned here

I think the Aaron shows it was in the #1 slot. There's also a Blefary over Johnny Klippstein, Radatz over Rollins, Carreon over Hamilton and Hamilton over one of the checklists - which puts them in either the #1 or #11 slot.

The lack of miscuts is amazing - absolutely nothing side-to-side, save the Aaron.

With 77 cards, do we think there is a 3x - 4x pattern?

From the numbers I ran, I feel safe saying the 3xs include:
Moeller
Brandon/Foy
Blefary
Buford
McDowell
Skinner
Boccabella/Dowling
Richardson
A's Team
Walker/Fryman
Bunker
Edwards
Wood

Similarly, I think these are in the 4xs:
Stanky
Azcue
Buchek
Gibbon
McCool
Face
Radatz
Bragan
Hannan
Bennett
Klippstein
McAuliffe
O'Donoghue
Green
Belinsky
Wilhelm
Stigman
Wynn
Linz


Any and all information or speculation on the arrangement of cards on the 6th series slits, and certainly any miscuts, would be appreciated!

Nice finds! I wish we could do the 1966 Topps 6th Series sheet but there are absolutely no horizontal miscuts which makes it just about impossible. Kevin says the 1965 Topps 6th Series is just as bad if not worse.
