Keith-

I think the total count of 60 (52 baseball, 8 others) is pretty well established. There's a volume of the World Tobacco Issues published by the Cartophilic Society of Great Britian that has the complete list - if any uncatalogued cards were to surface in the future, it would be a big surprise. I don't have the full list, but I learned from another collector that it includes these cards:

McGrath shot put 10
Meyer sprinter 10
Della Connor actress 11
Paul Panzer actor 11

The number following each name/occupation is what appears in the lower left corner of each card. After collecting this set on and off for 15 years, I think I'd put the athletes and photoplay stars in the more difficult group, i.e., all cards with number 10 and higher are at least twice (and probably 5-10x) as difficult as those with numbers between 2 and 9.
