Default This section of a plate scratch sheet mirrors part of the Wagner strip

The back of "C-D" plate scratch sheet was used on two different sets of
fronts as two different subjects for each scratch confirms.

A section of that sheet mirrors three positions of the Wagner strip.

Here's the Wagner strip

Here's the section on the sheet that mirrors it

Kling, Young and Brown (Port) are in the same position as the Wagner strip

here's the M.Brown (Port), Kling and Young (port) scratches

The second subjects in the Pattee and Reulbach positions are not
confirmed yet so it's possible that the matching scratch for Pattee could
be Bowerman. There are only two PD150 Wagner's that I know of and
neither has a plate scratch to confirm his position but he could have been in the Reulbach position and then replaced by another subject.

Another interesting thing about this sheet is most of the 150 only subjects
are all together in a horizontal row, they include Evers(Cubs), Doyle (Throwing), Donlin (Fielding)
M.Brown (Cubs), Pattee, Reulbach, Burch, Ames, and Schulte who I consider a 150 only subject.
The other 150 only subjects that don't have confirmed scratches on this sheet are Wagner, Magie (fixed name), G.Browne (team change)
and Powers who is the only 150 only subject in the SC150/649 subset and he has confirmed scratches on another plate scratch sheet (the A-B sheet).

It could be just a coincidence that the three subjects on the Wagner strip with confirmed scratches
are in the same position on this sheet but I think it's interesting either way.
