Cliff andI recreated both 7th series slits. The Ellsworth mock up slit went:
Row Leading Card 1 Dick Ellsworth 2 Mike Hershberger 3 Gus Gil 4 Al Jackson 5 Cubs RS 6 Phil Gagliano 7 Ruben Amaro 8 Dick Ellsworth 9 Mike Hershberger 10 Gus Gil 11 Al Jackson 12 Cubs RS The other slit goes like: Row Leading Card 1 Cubs RS 2 Phil Gagliano 3 Ruben Amaro 4 Gus Gil 5 Al Jackson 6 Cubs RS 7 Phil Gagliano 8 Ruben Amaro 9 Dick Ellsworth 10 Mike Hershberger 11 Gus Gil 12 Al Jackson |

The 4th series slit is a 99 card series and should have 6 rows printed 3x with 3 rows printed 2x. The slit image of which I am aware has the McCovey AS card at top left and the various lead cards are:
Row Leading Card 1 McCovey AS 2 B Robinson AS 3 Ray Washburn 4 Bubba Morton 5 Tito Francona 6 Ray Culp 7 Sal Bando 8 Wayne Comer 9 Ed Kranepool 10 McCovey AS 11 B Robinson AS 12 Ray Washburn Although I haven't seen the 2nd slit, there are a sufficient number of miscuts and wrong backs that I believe the 2nd slit goes like: Row Leading Card 1 Ray Culp 2 Sal Bando 3 Wayne Comer 4 Ed Kranepool 5 McCovey AS 6 B Robinson AS 7 Ray Washburn 8 Bubba Morton 9 Tito Francona 10 Ray Culp 11 Sal Bando 12 Wayne Comer |

I was able to place Lee Elia and Clyde King from these miscuts the last couple of days, I am down to four cards to finish the 1969 3rd Series 110 card sheet, Vic Davalillo, Elrod Hendricks, Bart Shirley, and Gary Sutherland.

Page is live -
https://mrpekrul.wixsite.com/narcissism/1969 Question - found this sell sheet at TCDB. It notes that the racks came 48 per case and makes no mention of a display box. Did the case of 48 come with the sort of store display rack shown in the image? 48 would yield 3 even displays of 16 per holder. |

The Salmon row and the NL Home Run Leaders row are obviously the other two 3x rows on the B slit going by eBay quantities but I don't know the layout of that slit, I couldn't find any useful miscuts. There are miscut Chico Salmon cards that have SLIT B on the left side so I believe the Salmon row and the NL Home Run Leaders row are the two bottom rows on the B slit.

There is a mc of Horace Carke, showing he is above Chico Salmon on the 2nd slit.

Here is a 1969 Topps Ernie Banks on the bottom row of the B Slit. That places the Salmon row and the NL Home Run Leaders row in the 11 and 12 slots of the B Slit. They could have just switched the bottom two rows of each Slit and it would have worked but I would be very surprised if it's that simple.

I would be fine with going with the theory that both Slits are the same other than the bottom two rows being different on each Slit, I haven't seen any evidence that says otherwise and we can always change it if contrary evidence does show up.
