Thanks for the welcome Leon.
Looking at this sheet makes me wonder even more about the other half. For example, in the Standard Catalog it shows Robinson as a SP but this sheet shows it as a DP.
Others are listed as DP such as Klippstein. Looking at the sheet shows this card only once. To be fair to the Standard Catalog, unless both sides of the sheet can be viewed we really cannot tell.
I have seen full sheets of other series where the RH and LH sides were inverted. In other words, cards short printed on the RH were double printed on the LH sheet to even up the printing.
This is easily done on a series of 88 cards (87 cards and the previous checklist). 88 x 3=264 so each card is printed 3 x.
Another interesting point is that the 67 6th series was also only 77 cards (76 cards and the previous checklist) so that led to some potential short prints. The 6th series does not seem to be mentioned like the 7th series high numbers.
