Topps regular issue sets, 1960 through 1969, which player who had at least 7 regular cards during those years had the highest AVERAGE card number

The guy I'm thinking of has an average card number over 400.

I found someone who has Johnny Klippstein beat and he has a card for every year of the sixties. Just like with Klippstein, I was looking through a semi-high series for a different reason and I noticed Don Cardwell was in the series. I thought he seemed to be in a lot of semi-high and high series so I figured I would add them up and divide the total by ten. His total is 4357 which comes out to an average of 435.7, which beats Klippstein's eight year average of 431.25.

First name that popped in my head was Frank Robinson......but his average is only 314.
