My third point could also just mean they advanced each series by (usually) 22 cards as a preview of the next series. I don't have enough sheet scans to check this properly. I'm amending my item 2 above to avoid further confusion. Like I said, these are theories until proven out.
Here's a second series 1958 half sheet (with the extra Bunning that replaced Bouchee as a bonus) and it looks like 88 subjects with 44 DP's. If this is the "A" sheet for the series then the "B" sheet would run the opposite (the DP from the first sheet are SP on the other, and vice-versa). So if you did 110 cards in the first series press run and your checklist goes to 88, you are 22 cards ahead of the game for series 2.
It would be great if we could get sheet scans going in this thread. A lot of us are quarantined, right? Plenty of time to comb your scans! You need 132 card half sheets to assess.
