Trivia - 1960s Topps card numbers
I've been aware of this for many years, and am curious if anyone else has noticed it too. So I'll ask in the form of a trivia question:
Topps regular issue sets, 1960 through 1969, which player who had at least 7 regular cards during those years had the highest AVERAGE card number? It isn't Mantle, but for clarification, this is what I mean: Year Mantle 1960 350 1961 300 1962 200 1963 200 1964 50 1965 350 1966 50 1967 150 1968 280 1969 500 Average card number: 243 The guy I'm thinking of has an average card number over 400.

Just a wild guess, George Altman?

I found someone who has Johnny Klippstein beat and he has a card for every year of the sixties. Just like with Klippstein, I was looking through a semi-high series for a different reason and I noticed Don Cardwell was in the series. I thought he seemed to be in a lot of semi-high and high series so I figured I would add them up and divide the total by ten. His total is 4357 which comes out to an average of 435.7, which beats Klippstein's eight year average of 431.25.
