Specs got a slice of the sales of Mascot Dog Food along with others in the set:
A fellow Net54er (JLange) searched on GenealogyBank in PA and NJ for ads from 1952-56 and got this the April 27, 1954 Evening Star out of Washington, D.C. in "The Baseball Beat" column by Burton Hawkins. The text reads,
"Bucky Harris is a business associate of Al Rosen, Ed Mathews, Robin Roberts, Yogi Berra, Ed Lopat, Monte Irvin and Specs Toporcer. Their pictures appear on cans of Mascot dog food and they get a slice of the sales."
