Peter ThomasTed sent me an email making sure I had seen his post, which I had. The following was my reply to Ted.
"Hi Ted,
Thanks, I did see the post on the board. Those 5 new TTT back players brings the known total to 54. I think that pretty much eliminates 55 as the likely numbers of TTT backs. If 66 are possible then from a group of 23 I would expect 5.5 new cards which fits your observation. This actually fits my theory that the t204's were printed in 2 sheets of 66 cards (6 by 11). 1 sheet would have 66 players and the other sheet 55 players with 11 of the players double printed. Scott thinks that there was 1 sheet of 121. Mastro tells me that the only known sheet had about 80 cards before it was cut about 10 years years ago. He did not see the sheet. So the mystery is not solved but all new information helps - thanks again. Peter"
