This is one of my favorite threads, I was going through my folder of ghost image scans and it reminded me of this thread.

There was a lot of progress made on the Lash's cards but it stalled out for some reason and I think there's room for more progress to be made on these.

I think you can tentatively put Freeman between Maddox and Bliss on this sheet.

There's also a Barger ghost but I'm not sure who the other subject is, maybe Natress? and it's a SC350/30 not a PD350.

Personally I think all the Lash's cards came from one scrap sheet and the height and possibly the width of the sheet needs to be increased to get all of them to fit. I know they are a different series but the plate scratch sheets show that the same subject was used in numerous vertical rows two of them show a minimum of 14 high.
I think at some point during the print group 1 printing they switched from printing a single vertical subject on the sheets to using two and that would put the minimum same vertical subjects at 7 on a sheet.

This is the minimum height of each sheet/partial sheet as indicated by the known plate scratches.
