1967 Topps 6th Series

[G1911]

Off memory, series 6 is 458-533. Adding the checklist DP, 77 cards, 7 unique rows. So there should be SP'd rows to fit the Topps sheet size. Tony Perez and Tony Perez alone used to be listed in the Standard Catalogs (mine is the Vintage only, 5th edition) as a SP; he may or may not be but he is obviously not the only one; unless a card was pulled from production there should always be at least 10 others just as tough.

Tolan and Helms seem to be more popular than I had expected in set building. I too found the HOF's in this series pretty easy and cheap. McCovey, Palmer, Killebrew, Marichal, all were pretty easy.

I would imagine the 6th series is tougher than the 1st, but I know of no accepted explanation of it being anywhere on par with the difficulty of the 7th series.

What bugs me is sellers who don't know the numbers and just generally list cards with 500 or up on the back as a "high number." Uh, no, high numbers start at #534.

I assume there are no known images of 6th series sheets out there? I checked my small but growing uncut sheet folder and I have sample images from 1-5 and 7 (some grabbed from these boards).

I checked my archive and do not have an image of the sheet either. Not that that means much

I like that the grade 6 Shaw is half the price of his grade 5 Shaw.

And the "grade" 4 and 4.5 are more than the 6 as well!

I actually found a half dozen 6th series commons - including Shaw - last night at Mantlerulz on eBay for decent prices. Grabbed them for $40 shipped, which tells you they were priced a lot nicer than most.

I collect sheets but have not seen a 6th series sheet

Nothing to add to the discussion on 6th series pricing, but here's a card I sold a few months ago.

There are two series sheets from the 60’s that Kevvyg1026 and I can’t even commence to reconstruct, 1966 Topps 6th Series and 1967 Topps 6th Series because of the lack of partial sheets, wrong backs, and miscuts. 1966 Topps 4th Series, 1969 Topps 3rd Series, and 1969 Topps 7th Series aren’t far behind.
