1970 7th Series B/Left side slit

This is incredible!

Question on the match of Lucchesi to Garibaldi - Garibaldi has the darker trees low on the card. Can you tell from the original image whether the miscut is actually showing any of the photo down that low on Lucchesi or if it cuts into the border down there?

I thought about that too, the darker area further down on the Garibaldi card, it appears to me that the Lucchesi miscut is also slightly diamond cut and where the trees would show for Garibaldi the photo of the card on the right is no longer showing on the Lucchesi miscut.

Works for me.

So from left to right we have the following columns:

Checklist
Roland
?
Uhlaender
Fairly
Baker
?
?
?
Meyer
Bertaina

Between Roland and Uhlaender is either Phillips or Fisher.

Between Baker and Meyer it goes:
Phillips
McFadden
Cards Rookies

Or

McFadden
Cards Rookies
Phillips

Or

Fisher
McFadden
Cards Rookies

Or

McFadden
Cards Rookies
Fisher

The Fisher column is the 3rd column, the card to the left of Hank Aguirre is Kevin Collins. It had to be either Phoebus or Collins, Collins has the line extending past the corner identical to the card on the miscut. The only thing left to figure out now is if columns 7-8-9 go Phillips-McFadden-Cards Rookie Stars or McFadden-Cards Rookie Stars-Phillips.

Stick a fork in it! Tom Haller is on the second row and is in the Baker column, the card to his right has to be either Ken Tatum or Frank Robinson. On the miscut Haller the card to his right has the blue bio box that goes across the length of the card, Frank Robinson has the blue bio box that goes across the length of the card and Tatum has the shortened blue bio box. That means the columns go: Checklist-Roland-Fisher-Uhlaender-Fairly-Baker-McFadden-Cards Rookies-Phillips-Meyer-Bertaina. You know what this means, dewey, you gotta make a 132 card virtual sheet now .

Here is a miscut with clearer proof that the Phillips column doesn't go in front of the McFadden row in column 7, this Tatum miscut has a card with a shortened blue bio box to his right, it can't be Frank Robinson because Robinson has a full length blue bio box.

Allelujah!

Further evidence that it's Collins next to Aguirre is that the TM circle on the Collins always drops a bit lower than on Phoebus - also a perfect match.

I will create a mock sheet this weekend.

Now, back to the 1966 6th....there may be a reason that can be shortened
to 666...
