It looks like there should be another card in this set. The top three spots on the upper left side of the sheet are gone. It would have made sense to add another player. Besides that, there are missing a player for third base so maybe that is the missing player. Or maybe they cut out two players and added the header card at the last minute.
Why not just double print Roberto Clemente? That's what Topps would have done. Collectors certainly wouldn't have minded that.
Tony Perez played about one-third of his career at third base, so he could have been the guy. Others who played third base - Jorge Orta and Manny Trillo.
Others who could have been included that weren't at third base - Luis Tiant, Juan Marichal, Fernando Valenzuela, Luis Aparicio, Dave Concepcion, Tony Oliva and the Alou brothers.
If you have more information on this set please let me know. Anyone?
