You are right. When I was figuring this stuff out in my head (and a notepad) I put Jim Perry's RC in the 60 set. '59 is correct - still makes '65 as the only set w/ 4 Cy Young RCs, but the question stated that "no other set had more than 1 RC of a future Cy Young winner. You proved me inaccurate on this one.

No problem, and thanks for the brain teasers. Actually, I think there is another Topps set with 3 RCs of eventual Cy Young winners. 1976 had Ron Guidry, Mike Flanagan and Dennis Eckersley. Some may consider Eck's SSPC card to be his rookie, but that was unlicensed and, contrary to popular belief, was likely issued in 1976 and not 1975 anyway.
