Stigman is a 4x, unfortunately I don't see any print anomalies so it could be Radatz, Green, Bennett, or Face.

I think it might be Bill McCool under McAuliffe but if it is then that creates a problem with Ellsworth to the left of McCool because Ellsworth isn't under Klippstein, so unless this involves a row change then one or the other can't be right.

This was sitting in plain sight for so long earlier on this thread - Phillies team under Hargan. The only cards it could be (gray color, not in another row already) were Hargan, Banks and Linz. The thickness variations in the visible border make it a cinch for Hargan. This creates another 5 card partial column - Hargan, Phillies, Buchek, Wynn and Ferrara.

I was going to argue again about why Hatton was over the A's team instead of the Phillies - even though Phillies is under Hargan, could be under Hatton on the other slit - but since Hatton is now confirmed next to Wyatt, this places him in a 3 card partial column and since Phillies team is in a 5 card partial, well that's that. Hatton over the A's team.

I've long wondered why it can't be Rollins to the right of Ellsworth in the diamond miscut - the grass color is much darker than Ellsworth's in both cases, and trying to be precise on color tone with that poor image is dicey. I'm not saying it IS Rollins, just asking why it couldn't be. For you does it come down to the darker green on McCool?

Holy smokes, you're right. I have had it in my mind that it had to be either McCool or Oliva to the right of Ellsworth, Rollins makes perfect sense and he's a 4x. I think we can put McCool under McAuliffe now.

Nice! That means one of the two remaining cards in the column is a Cub or a White Sock above Hargan. Could it be Covington?

I can't believe it but we actually have a 1966 6th Series cluster going.

???????? - ?????? - Cannizzaro - ??????
***l*******l********l********l***
???????? - ?????? - *Belinsky* - ??????
***l*******l********l********l***
*Howard - Hatton - **Wyatt** - ??????
***l*******l********l********l***
*Oliva* - A's Team - *Blefary* - ??????
***l*******l*********l********l***
Simmons - Radatz - Klippstein - McAuliffe
***l*******l********l********l***
Ellsworth - Rollins - ????????? - McCool

I show it could be Covington, Stanky, Wilhelm or John in the Hargan column - do you prefer Covington due to card counts?

On McCool under McAuliffe - why McCool? We have McAuliffe in a column of 1 right now - the only blue cards it couldn't be are those in columns 1 and 10 and those in the Klippstein and Radatz columns to his left - together these are Nuxhall, Rollins, Klippstein and Edwards. Could still be McCool, Coleman or Oliva, no?

Can you re-post the card count list you're using for reference? I did one way back on the first page of this thread.
