Sorry for the confusion.

Flkersn,

Good pick up. I forgot that post. I could be wrong, but I think the layout of the sheet as viewed from the back, if accurate, is rotated 90 degrees. Here is the back of a 1952 Topps sheet in the 5th Series which indicates the cards in that series were printed numerically top to bottom. That appears to be consistent with other sheets. Reiser #189 would be double printed in the middle of the sheet and the 2nd row from the bottom. Unfortunately I don't know of any 3rd series sheets to confirm this....so it is just speculation as to whether Patrick's notes above are correct.
