1969 Topps Information/Images Needed

There is a mc of Horace Carke, showing he is above Chico Salmon on the 2nd slit.

Here is a 1969 Topps Ernie Banks on the bottom row of the B Slit. That places the Salmon row and the NL Home Run Leaders row in the 11 and 12 slots of the B Slit. They could have just switched the bottom two rows of each Slit and it would have worked but I would be very surprised if it's that simple.

Is anyone ready to call the order of the 12 rows on this other slit? I am going back through my 1969 page and will jump on the chance to fill in a missing slit with another Frankenslit (I still owe Cliff one from the 1969 3rd series - look for it before the end of the weekend).

The only way to disprove it is to come up with a miscut that says otherwise, but I just can't believe Topps would be that simplistic on the two 1969 1st Series slits when they were switching rows all over the place on all other non 88 card Series in that era.

It would seem that the last three rows should be Clarke, Salmon, NL HR leaders. The other miscuts I have seen from this series don't show row shifts. So, we will have to determine which row is at the top of slit B in order to make an educated guess at the pattern.
