1967 Topps 6th Series

Actually, this is what Cliff & I currently believe the layout looks like. This is not confirmed yet, so it is subject to possible change. However, it explains the miscuts we have, the wrong backs, the top of slit cuts, etc. There are still 18 cards pending placement.

Awesome!! I think it's safe to place Felipe Alou in the 7 slot of the Bell row and Indians Rookie Stars in the 10 slot of the Bell row, they are the two cards remaining that are available in much larger quantities than the other remaining cards on eBay, COMC, Dean's, and the card under Santiago must be a non regular player card, i.e. a 'special' card.

The card under Santiago has to be Schoendienst - we know he occupies an 11 slot like Santiago, and there are no other "specials" for which we don't know the slot placement - Bird Belters, Hill Aces, Rigney and Durocher are all accounted for.

And I noticed I placed Durocher/Arrigo in the 3/4 slots and not the 4/5 slots where they belong.

Santiago is UNDER Schoendienst.

I was referring to the image posted earlier - I think what we know is that between the two slits, there is at least one instance of the row with Santiago being above the row with Shoendienst, and at least one instance of the row with Santiago being below Schoendienst. We know this because the Schoendienst card is the only special card that can be in slot 11.

Santiago is in C10, and there is a rookie card, 499, available to place in the slot below Santiago. Cliff and I suspect that is what is below.

Sorry - meant slot 10. Not sure that can be a rookie card - they do have the black curve in the upper left, but then a pencil thin black line border - like the lines surrounding the stat lines. This certainly has the appearance of the thicker "special" and manager cards.
