Hey Paul -
Found this in an old Laughlin newsletter from November of 1975 - I don't know if he didn't list the other 4 because he hadn't made them yet, or if he didn't sell enough to make the list. I saw a grouping of a "set" of 8 of these in pretty rough shape on eBay a few years back, and it consisted only of the ones listed in this ad (no Musial) - makes me think that for quite a while he was only selling these nine, and added Bench, Hodges, Koufax and Seaver later, perhaps, or maybe stopped making them if they were not selling well.
