which I refer to as the "Exclusive 12". For more info on these 12 cards, check-out this thread..... http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=163949


Assuming the printing of these cards was centered as depicted on this sheet, then the side borders are is 7/8" each. And, the top and bottom borders are 1 1/2" each.

** Note this standard sheet size was provided by Steve B. The 19" width is consistent with early 20th Century lithographic printing presses. The length of the sheet
can be a variable, depending on the number of cards being printed..

Hi Ted,

Just curious as to how one of these would look using different subjects, other than the exclusive twelve. As an example, what would be another plausible group put together on a sheet this size? Thanks-

Sincerely, Clayton

My research indicates that these 48 subjects from a 350 series design were arranged on the same sheet. And, were Double-Printed in order to fill out a standard
19" x 24" sheet (96-cards).

I do not claim that the arrangement of these cards is exactly as American Litho placed them on this sheet. But, I placed same color cards together, since I have
seen this printing practice on certain uncut Sportscard sheets that I have in my collection.


Note that the same borders are on this sheet as the sheet with the Exclusive 12 cards..... 7/8" margins on each side..... 1 1/2" margins top and bottom.

Interesting, thanks.

I'm just trying to follow your theory Ted, if I question anything you say it's only me trying to make sense of it. Now, going off of this sheet, I'm wondering about the card placement. I know you didn't say this is the exact card placement-but, if they knew they would be placing the same 48 subjects, printed twice, wouldn't they (possibly) double print the same card twice vertically? Like Cobb portrait with another Cobb portrait right below it, Marquard portrait with another Marquard portrait below it, etc.?

I bring this up because we've seen the vertical miscuts and the amount of same name same card miscuts(top and bottom) ratio compared to different name same card(top and bottom). With this layout, every card would have the possibility to have a same card different name miscut(top and bottom).

Looking forward to your next example, thanks for taking the time to lay this out.

Sincerely, Clayton

Oooops^^^^ looks like my quoting the sheet layout messed it up
