1965 Topps Series 6 semi-high Sheet Reconstruction

Here is a mc of Owens, 451, with a tinge of red at the top. I think that means that Howard, 450, is above both Horlen 480, and Owens, 451.

And we also know that Priddy is above Owens (482 above 451).

Jim Owens also has Joel Horlen above him which explains the 4x cards that have a 4x card above or below them.

The black border card to the right of Jim Owens has to be Ken Harrelson through the process of elimination, of the nine 1965 5th Series black border cards four of them are 4x. They are Phil Gagliano, Yankees Team card, Cardinals Rookie Stars, and Ken Harrelson. Gagliano is eliminated because he has Richie Allen under him and Allen has C Boyer to his left, that means Gagliano cannot be in a C2 column. The Yankees Team card has NEW YORK YANKEES - 1964 printed higher than the baseball on the back of the card which means it would be showing on the back of the Owens miscut. Cardinals Rookie Stars has Manny Mota to its' left. That means it has to be Ken Harrelson, so the first three cards of a 4x row are Jim Owens-Ken Harrelson-Frank Kostro. This also puts the first three cards of the Horlen row above the first three cards of the Owens row one time on each slit.

Trying to reconstruct this series is like trying to put a 132 piece jigsaw puzzle together with over half of the pieces missing, but here are two that fit together, 4x Sammy Ellis is above 3x Cookie Rojas somewhere over the two slits.

I have Tony Cloninger to the left of this Angels Rookie Stars card in post #6. I have looked everywhere I could think of and the supply of miscuts on this series has completely dried up. This is going to be much more difficult than the 1966 6th Series.

[Cliff Bowman]

A couple of new ones from the wasteland of 1965 Topps 6th Series. Don Pavletich is to the right of Clete Boyer so I was wrong about it being Richie Allen. Pavletich is definitely a 4x so that means C Boyer is a 4x even though he has relatively low quantities. Too bad there aren't more of these misaligned backs out there. Also, the Cardinals Rookie Stars card (Steve Carlton) has a 4x Met or a 4x Senator to its' right.
