Now, this is very interesting ^^^^ and I'm also glad the Obak sheet is being talked about.

I think it is very important to be open minded about the sheet layout and not get pigeon holed into focusing on a "certain sized" track, when we already know they were using multiple sized presses. The Obak sheet shows us that the print quality on this larger sheet was not sacrificed by using a larger sheet. And, for now, that Obak sheet is the closest thing we have to study.

Great discussion! I love threads like this.

Jantz- great observation!

Chris- Great input with the yellow-brown scraps, I think those are an excellent clue.

Erick- great questions, you are better with words than I am.

Steve- always fun to read your information, thanks!

Everyone else- thanks for the input! I didn't start this thread but I've thoroughly enjoyed reading through it.


Sincerely, Clayton
