I noticed that this card features five HoF players, which set me to wondering if that is the most HoF players featured on any one card? There may be team cards that include five or more, I suppose. Anybody have cards that feature five or more HoFers?

Looks like a Cardinals logo on the cap. The 1961 AS game at Fenway had Bill White as the only African-American Cardinal on the roster.

Very cool and underrated card!

It seems to only feature 4.75 Hall of Famers though, as they seem to have left out part of Ernie Banks' face.

I believe that is John Roseboro with his back to the camera, not Banks. Roseboro wore #8 and Banks wore #14.

I always wondered why they cut Banks’ photo so poorly.

The 1958 Dodgers team card has 7 pictured: Alston, Koufax, Drysdale, Reese, Campanella, Snider, and Hodges.

EDITED TO ADD: Actually I believe it is 8, as it seems to also include coach Billy Herman.

I purchased quite a few of these HOF/multi-player cards back when money was a little tight and 52 Topps cards were tougher to come by.
Not many people back then liked them, I recall, but to me they were great cards that could be had really cheap.

The '67 N. League Pitching leaders cards shows 4 HOFers: Koufax, Marichal, Gibson and Perry.
One of the cooler cards with 5 HOFers is the 1972 Cubs team composite, where you can at least clearly see their faces: Durocher, Banks, Santo, Jenkins and Williams.

I stand corrected. Not Banks

I love this card, but what's up with that mole or scab or print blob on Mantle's face?

I thought the background player on the 62 T mgr dream was Elston Howard
