contents We establish explicit formulas for Bell numbers and graphical Stirling numbers of complete multipartite graphs, complete bipartite graphs with removed perfect matchings, and Mycielskian trees. For complete multipartite graphs $K(n_1,\ldots,n_\ell)$, we provide a simplified proof that $B(G) = \prod_{i=1}^\ell \bell{n_i}$. We derive $B(K_{n,n} - M) = \sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} \bell{k}^2$ for removed perfect matching $M$, and for Mycielskian star graphs, $B(M(St_n); 3) = 2^n + 1$ and $B(M(St_n); 2n) = 2n^2 - 3n + 3$. Results extend to Mycielskians of arbitrary trees. Our computational verifications establish links between graphical Bell numbers and fundamental sequences in combinatorics and pattern avoidance, including identification of several OEIS entries: A000051, A096376, A116735, A384980, A384981, A384988, A385432, and A385437.
