Just let me know when Worthpoint spits out a 1966 6th series slit....

Thanks again to the diligent work of others, we can put another older Topps series arrangement to bed. Because it contains 88 cards, it is possible to say with high confidence that we know both slit arrangements because 88 card full sheets are known to always follow the ABCDEFGHABCD and EFGHABCDEFGH pattern.

Wow, that was quick! The recent thread on the 1957 4th Series that had a couple of panels from the 3rd Series gave me the idea of reconstructing the 3rd Series slits. I don’t know if Sports Collectors Digest was able to recreate the 1957 3rd Series sheet like they did with the 2nd and 4th Series for their 1999 cover story of the Alan Rosen 1957 Topps sheets find. It didn’t take Kevin and I too long to do this one compared to most other series. We just finished the 1958 3rd Series that we have been working on and off on for over a year.

I saw this on ebay, a proof sheet for series 4 from 1961. Cliff and I will be working on the remaining 44 cards from this series, unless someone has an image of a slit from the series (wishful thinking???).

BTW, based on this miscut, the series 5 checklist which will appear on this sheet should be the one without the ad for the MVP cards.

Has anyone started work on the 1958 Series 1 sheet?

I’m working on building the master set and the yellow variations have intrigued me.

I have found some successful pairings from miscuts I can post if anyone else is interested in working on it with me.
