Great seeing these side by side, thanks Cliff. Explains a lot after building that set!

Kevin found this recently from Heritage Auctions, it looks like we got everything right but it feels like we did all of that work for nothing for however long it was on that sheet. It's a shame it wasn't the 1966 6th Series.

Anyone have a series 5 sheet of '67?

Nice! What’s bizarre about that series is that many sellers on eBay and even Dean’s Cards have 44 of the 88 cards listed as double prints which of course they’re not. Trading Card Database (TCDB) also had 44 of them listed as DP’s a couple of years ago so I used my privileges and removed all of the DP designations from the 44 cards and a few hours later I was contacted by an administrator/mod and asked why I did that, I explained that the 1967 5th Series is 88 cards with each printed evenly 3x over the two Slits with no SP’s or DP’s. They must have believed me because it was never changed back.

A composite faux slit from the semi-hi series from '62.

As usual, owing to irregularities in size and tilt of available images and because of the wood borders, it's probably best to not zoom in too closely - as Dr. Zeus said to Taylor, you may not like what you find (it ain't pretty).

It looks beautiful to me ! It's been so long since we did that one I forgot which rows are 3x and which ones are 4x. I'm sure Kevin knows. ETA: The McLish row and the Bunning row are 3x, I will have to determine the other two 3x rows.
