No doubt Topps was being cheap in 1968-69. The evidence is in the old photos the company continued to use. By the late '60s, it seemed like half the cards are just head shots without caps, or head shots with caps that have had the logo blacked out because the player was traded. You can find many photos that were used years after they were taken. Most photos are taken in East Coast cities — Topps never even bothered to visit many of the ballparks.
