As a lifelong St. Louisan who collected cards back in '67 and continues collecting to this day, I can absolutely verify the scarcity of '67T series 6 and the abundance of series 7 in St. Louis. We were buying 7th series packs like crazy at the time hoping to find those elusive cards from the penultimate series. Ended up with plenty of Brooks Robinsons and those two rookie cards people seem to like, but never even saw a McCarver until I bought the entire 6th series from Bruce Yeko at Wholesale Cards in the mid-70's. Set me back a whopping $5.95 (same price by the way as the Fleer Ted Williams set w/o #68, from the same order).

I have been advertising in local papers for decades, and purchased many collections, but have never once come across any series 6 cards. I still find series 7 cards occasionally, which certainly makes the situation a lot more tolerable.
