Question about 1962 Salada Coins

Thanks for the info, Brian! I'll be sure to track down a copy!

Good story, Mrsportscardcollector! It was nice of Salada to supply the missing coin!

Ironically, the only set I ever tried to complete as a kid was the 1966 Topps set. The only card I was missing was #70 Yaz!

John, you're most welcome. I honestly believe you would enjoy my book strictly for the chapter on the '62 Saladas. I had a lot of fun with that chapter, and tried to keep conjecture to a minimum, while doing some in-depth interpretive understanding 501. There's a couple nice personal stories from my own collecting past, that you may find entertaining.

I'm the only person who sells hard copies, John, so if you should decide to give Never Cheaper By the Dozen a try, you can email me at bfpowell2003@yahoo.com. I have plenty of copies left; that's for certain.

Have a swell day, bro. I'm off to work, shortly. ---- Brian Powell

Thanks to the images of the two uncut Salada sheets supplied by Fred, I was able to assemble a spreadsheet by team comparing printing sheet #1 with printing sheet #2. Sheet #1 contains the original 180 coins; sheet #2 has #s 201 through 221 in place of 21 coins that were removed from sheet #1.

I also put together a side-by-side checklist comparing the two sheets.

They are too large to post here, but if anyone would like a copy, send me a PM with your email address and I'll send you a copy.

John

Sorry, tried to post the checklist but it didn't work.
