As many of you may know, in the 1955 Topps Hocus Focus Set (small) had sort of a different dynamic. They had #11, #17, and #19 listed as "unknown".

As a Cardinals collector I was just hoping one of those were not a Cardinals player if ever found. Unfortunately, a few years after this thread started it was discovered that #19 was Wally Moon, a Cardinal. I was like, "well, that means one of those will never be in my collection", even though I already had the Harvey Haddix.

Then, I got lucky. I am pretty sure, Al sent me a lead on one that was found. I ended up getting it for a very good price. As far as I know, there are 3 in existence....mine, Al's, and BMW Sportscards (PSA 5 or 6). It is definitely an unreplaceable card and I'm glad to have it.
