I think we'd need a microscope to determine where Nolan is in that bunch of 30+ — there actually appears to be disagreement of whether he's on the card despite his name being on the back. From on thread on Collectors.com:
"Back in the '80s, I tried like heck to find Ryan in this card. The registration is awful on even the nicest examples. I found two different photos from this 1966 shoot at Shea. Number matching and rookie image comparisons prooved fruitless. Although Ryan's stats are on the back, sadly, he's just not on this card or any of the team pics from that time.
Incidentally, Seaver is absent as well."
The Fatimas are BIG, beautiful cards and Jim has a nice front row, end spot. The glossy finish didn't hold up too well over the past century-plus, but it was a noble effort.
