1966 Topps 6th Series/Semi-Hi's

[deweyinthehall]

After doing a bit more work and another review of available images on eBay I've been able to place Aaron above Buford on one of the slits by working the back and front of this Aaron and all possible White Sox and Cubs (this makes Aaron, Buford, Moeller and Latman in the column 1 position).

Also, I was able to ID the card above the O'Donoghue previously posted as Manny Jimenez after comparing the reverses of all possible Mets and A's.

Finally, I think the Wynn here is enough of a miscut to say that on at least one of the slits he was on the top row - agree?

Also, Grady Hatton sits over the A's or Phillies team card on one or both slits:

It's not the Phillies Team card, it has a regular player card above it. Jiminez is definitely to the left of the Phillies Team card.

Great work! Now if we can figure out who the Brave or Angel is above Jimenez...

I think Nuxhall is in Col 1

So then I run into issues because, if Nuxhall is a left edge card, then Fox must also be.

The issue I have is that I also thought Bob Skinner, 471, was a left edge card. and was above Aaron via these two miscuts, which doesn't allow that card to be Buford.

I had Nuxhall, Fox, Aaron, Moeller, Skinner as lead cards.

I also thought there was a miscut with Buford below Azcue, so if Buford is a left edge card, then Azcue would be as well, (plus Latman), so I have too many left edge cards.

Upon further review - I retract my Aaron over Buford declaration, which removes both Buford and Latman from column 1.

What happened, and it's clear if you look at the images I posted above, I was looking at the front of an Aaron card with a Cub or White Sox below, and at the back of an Aaron with a slim piece of a card ABOVE, not below. Complete brain spasm on my part.

So, safely in column 1 now are Aaron, Skinner, Moeller, Nuxhall and Fox.

Found this Cannizzaro on COMC.

The only cards which could conceivably be below him, IMO, are Linz, Hargan, O'Donoghue and Belinsky.

From the fronts, it seems highly likely to be Belinsky given the coloration of the sky.

From the reverse, O'Donoghue seems to be close as well, but the color seems too off.

The reason I am not comfortable going with Belinsky is that the horizontal stat category lines seem too close to the edge to be completely missing from the back of the miscut Cannizzaro.

In the image with 4 cards layered together, from bottom to top it's Linz, Hargan, O'Donoghue and Belinsky.

Thoughts?
