1956 had 1-100 in the 1st series, 101-180 in the 2nd, 181-260 in the 3rd and 261-340 in the 4th. From 1957-1973, Topps followed this same pattern.

Why would skip numbered not account? Why would 1952 and other non-skip numbered sets before 1956 not count? Release by series begins long before Topps or Bowman.
