Topps did NOT shoot the Mets in Spring Training 1962, but did get them several times at the Polo Grounds. They captured some short-terms like Solly Drake, Herb Moford, Bobby Gene Smith, Harry Chili. They missed the likes of Sherman Jones, Gus Bell, Joe Ginsberg.

I've attached the Street & Smith 1962 Annual Mets' roster. It's accurate except as mentioned earlier Billy Loes did NOT attend.

Non-Rosters:

Pitchers:
APPLE, Ray
DEEM, Paul
DONNELLY, Ed*
HOY, Marc
KILLEEN, Evans*
ROBINSON, Bill

Catchers
BURNETTE, Jim (Shown below)
WHALEN, Bill

Infielders
FITZPATRICK, Bruce
HAMILT, Dawes (given first name: Marshall; often listed as a pitcher; he played 3B)
KANEHL, Rod

* previous major league experience
