1970 7th Series B/Left side slit

[deweyinthehall]

OK - now that I've had a chance to catch up, my reading is we have 8 complete columns, and 3 unsolved:

McFadden
?
?
Leonhard

Baker
?
?
Santiago

Cards Rookies
?
?
Sadecki

And these can be filled by these 3 middle row pairs:

?
Robinson
Rollins
?

?
Haller
Garibaldi (we know this pair sits in the 6th column because of the Ryan wrong back)
?

?
Pagan
Hall
?

Of the 8 complete colums, we know the left 2 are headed by the checklist and Roland, and the right edge is Bertaina

In post 102, it is said the Meyer column borders the Bertaina on the left - but I can't find where that connection was made.

You were the one that provided the miscut for that, the Reichardt miscut that shows a blue box extending the full length of the card which you said had to be Lucchesi or Lolich, it turned out that it could also be Hall, but Lucchesi is eliminated because he has the Indians Team card to his left and Hall has Rollins to his left.

Got it - it's hard to keep up some times.

Here's one - Garibaldi has to be over Sadecki, Santiago or Leonhard. This shows he's over Santiago - the top edge of the adjoining card's stat box is even with the cartoon hand. Only Santiago fits.

This makes a new column of:

Baker
Haller
Garibaldi
Santiago

Because we know Garibaldi is in the 6th column, this means we have the left two, right two and the center columns locked.

The Uhlaender and Fairly columns are joined, but we don't know where they fit precisely.

You have a better eye than I do, I had that Garibaldi miscut but I couldn't make out anything other than the bottom part of the line.

I have this miscut Leonhard showing part of the copyright line of the card above it but I couldn't discern anything, maybe someone else can.

I can barely see the the top of the stat box now. Great work!

Thanks - wish I could help with the Leonhard copyright line - I've tried lining up Hall, Rollins and Leonhard to no avail either way.

Jackpot! This miscut shows the McFadden column is to the left of the Cardinals Rookie Stars column, which in turn completes the McFadden column at

McFadden
F Robinson
Rollins
Leonhard

and the Cardinals Rookie Stars column is complete at

Cards Rookie Stars
Pagan
Hall
Sadecki

The same eBay seller has a couple more identical miscuts from the same sheet that I will post, one of them should be very crucial once I figure out what the other card is.

This Billingham miscut confirms that the Bertaina column

Bertaina
Billingham
Lolich
Ward

is the 11th (Right Edge) column as we suspected, if Billingham wasn't a right edge card then the card to his right would be showing on the miscut.
