1955-1970 Topps Virtual Series Sheets

[Merkle923]

A little late to this but just saw the thread referenced on David Hornish's Topps site.

I've got uncut sheets - proof and issued - from 1959, 1960 (the Throneberry/Hadley "error" sheet), 1962, 1967, 1968, and a couple later.

The 1959 is handy (sorry it's wobbly, had to stand it up for the photo, too big for scanning). The key items here are: the white backs are creamier and duller than the irradiated white on the issued cards. The team change on Chick King's card is missing and that on the Bob Thurman is in a different font and color! Printed by Lord Baltimore.

Would love to see the other sheets. In particular, it would be so nice to see a 69 3rd series, or a 66 6th series, or a 65 series 6.

Gentleman,

You all are scary good and dedicated in recreating these printer panels. It is awesome to keep up with this post and see the progress of recreation.

HUZZZAH!!!!

There are a few other sheets that we constructed on other threads that I will post here. I am positive that this is the 1967 6th Series 33 card proof sheet that you saw at the 1989 Guernsey's Auction, minus the MY in TOMMY.

Reconstructed 1963 6th Series Slit not yet shown on this thread, there are a couple more.

I don’t think anyone has yet made a complete virtual sheet of the B Slit of the 1967 Topps 7th Series where someone at Topps screwed up and had three Vada Pinson rows on the Slit, there is a known A Slit that has been shown on other threads.

Here is the known 1967 Topps 7th Series Slit, and here is a thread on the 67 7th Series Slits https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=285574

Again, thanks to the dogged research of others, here is a faux-slit from the 1963 3rd series.

As always with sets that have colored bordered, please don't look to closely - it is hard to compensate for all of the variations of coloration in the individual card images.

Great work as always! I believe this is the last 1963 Series of the five previously not known Series sheets that hasn’t been made into a virtual sheet. The 1963 3rd Series is 88 cards so there are no SP’s or DP’s, each card is printed 3x over both Slits.
