Those three did appear in the 1951 Bowman set, so were probably under contract with that company, as were a number of others missing from Topps sets. Musial was in the 1952 Bowman set, but DiMaggio was retired and Williams in service. The latter two were also missing from Topps 1951 sets, so it's likely they were under some sort of exclusive contract situation.
