With 77 cards, there are 33 cards printed 4 times and 44 cards printed 3 times. There were plenty of 6th series cards printed where it doesn't make a difference if a card is in the shorter run. For set collectors, these cards are available. Only when the series is in short supply like in 1966 and 1967 7th series, does being shorter supply make a difference. Mickey Mantle is a DP in 1966 Topps, it doesn't make that card cheap.

There are definitely price differences on some 6th series 1967 cards that are a bit unusual. It’s not super tough but it’s not like series 1 of 1966. Nobody ever implied a DP Mantle will be cheap at all. Some of us like to figure out the actual print patterns for historical knowledge, it’s not all about pricing.

And it's not even the most famous Mantle DP!

Well, I received my Dean's shipment from the other night - still no answer to my question, though. I won't hold my breath.

I noticed that Dean’s Cards and Trading Card Data Base (TCDB) share many of the same SP’s and DP’s, for example they both have 1967 Topps 1 The Champs, 30 Al Kaline, 100 Frank Robinson as DP’s (which may be correct, I don’t know), 42 cards in the 1967 5th Series as DP’s (wrong!), and 473 Tony Perez as a SP (who knows?). I would guess that Dean’s ‘borrowed’ the information from TCDB. I deleted all of the wrong denotations of DP from the 1967 Topps 5th Series on TCDB and I got a message from Administration asking why I did that, I explained to them that 88 card Series don’t have any SP’s or DP’s and that each card is printed three times over a 264 card sheet consisting of two 132 card Slits. They haven’t replied back to me or changed the cards back to DP’s, as of yet anyway.

UPDATE 6/13-I am re-running my survey. The 6/9 results from eBay look like they were all FUBAR and I have no idea why and I have deleted them.

Interesting.
All of the 15 cards I still need from the 6th series and can either not find or can't find at a decent price are on the lower half of this list, as are some of the cards I gave up and paid more than I wanted for. |

Clemens was a surprising pain for me when I was building this series.
