1966 Topps 6th Series/Semi-Hi's

I think I might have found who is above Larry Bearnarth but it isn't who I was expecting, Eddie Stanky. ETA it can't be Bobby Bragan because it is a regular player card under Stanky.

These were already pretty much confirmed but I don't think we had good scans of them, Cubs Rookie Stars above Tony Gonzalez and Joe Moeller above Cubs Rookie Stars.

I may need to step away for a while and start from scratch. Is there any way the card under Woodeshick might NOT be a yellow? Perhaps a light green of the Orioles or Astros? When you blow the image up, the card underneath looks less obviously yellow.

Here's why I ask - this Klippstein clearly has a yellow underneath him, right?

I am far less along than Cliff or Kevvy because on the spreadsheet I keep I only use actual known miscuts - I haven't gotten to filling in gaps based upon card counts, etc.

When I looked again at the Klippstein (who I have in a column with Blefary, Wyatt, Cannizzaro, Belinsky and John) and tried to match it with another yellow not yet assigned to ANY partial column, my two choices were Woodeshick and McAuliffe. I knew it couldn't be Woodeshick because with a yellow beneath him there couldn't be 2 yellows in that completed column. So it HAD to be McAuliffe.

But one of the only horizontal miscuts we have is McAuliffe on the same row as Klippstein!

So again - could the card beneath Woodeshick be a light green? If so, Blefary would match and I can sleep tonight.

I'm glad you showed that miscut of Klippstein. I had forgotten about it so I looked at mine and I also have a scan of the back, it shows two lines of the stats that extend toward the left. I compared it to the back of a Tommy John and it's a perfect match. I think that confirms Tommy John under Johnny Klippstein. We have Klippstein in the 4x Gonzalez row so that means there has to be a 4x under Klippstein, which John is and John has a Twin/Red above him from the miscut. The row structure goes

4x Aaron
3x Moeller
3x Cubs Rookie Stars
4x Gonzalez
4x Nuxhall
3x Fox
3x Skinner

It is Bearnarth - the distinctive gap between the black border and the left upper corner of the color band is consistent with his cards.
