Default Anyone Have Pics of an Uncut 1962 Series 2 Sheet??

I believe that Topps basically used two sets of sheets to print each series of cards back in the day. Sometimes cards were included/excluded at different rates across the pair of sheets, creating DP's, SP's, etc. Here is a half(?) sheet from the 1962 second series, 11 cards across and 12 cards down (132 in total). The top 4 rows of cards also appear as the bottom 4 rows. The middle 4 rows stand by their lonesome. Obviously, the other sheet probably wouldn't have matched this one exactly. It most likely would have been reconfigured to double up those middle 4 rows and single out the top/bottom rows to create an equal amount of individual cards??

Does anyone have a picture of the sheet that would have accompanied this one in the printing process? To be clear, I'm not looking for theories or speculation as to what the cards and the sheet configuration looked like (I pretty much stated what it should look like above), but actual photos of said sheet. Can anyone help? Partial sheets would be helpful, too, if they obviously aren't a part of the same type of sheet pictured above. Any help would be appreciated.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
