1967 Topps 6th Series

[Cliff Bowman]

Wouldn't you know it, a much better example shows up on eBay the next day, Adair to the left of Ortega.

After a search, it seems that the weird missing upper part of the word "DODGERS" in the Ortega cartoon was never corrected.

Between them and COMC it’s difficult to do these searches, if they were listings of newly acquired cards it would be great but all they are doing is recycling their old stock in a barrage of new listings.

So, I think we are down to two cards missing in the layout of this series. If only the 1966 series 6 (or series 4), or even the 1969 series 3 were so easy (lol). It's only taking us about a year to get to this point.

Kevvy this has given us great info.The work you and Cliff have done is amazing. Others have chimed in with help,too. So many questions by solving the '66 7th series and now this tough hard- to- figure '67 6th series. Knowing the short prints and the location of cards on the slits is huge for both sets.

I know you have figured out other series layouts on '60's sets. I need to look back at past posts and see which series you and Cliff have determined to have short prints on other sets, too.

Actually it was three cards but I figured there was no way that Topps put two team cards side by side so I surmised that the Pirates Team card had to be in the final open spot that doesn't have a team card on either side, between Bobby Wine and Bob Shaw in the 3 slot of the Brooks Robinson Checklist row. I just found a Bobby Wine with a miscut back that shows the Pirates Team card to his right so that confirms it. The last two cards to be placed are Tommy Helms and John Stephenson and the last two open slots are slot 6 on the Bob Miller row between the Giants Team card and Jerry Zimmerman and then slot 7 of the Brooks Robinson Checklist row between the Braves Team card and Marcelino Lopez.
