1968 Topps Double Print Question

[savedfrommyspokes]

Carlton,
My guess (after viewing the sheet in the post in the link), is that there is one true DP card in the first series and it is the 107 card ...this card would be the only DP in the series (as you have mentioned, the DP is the cause of the different meshes styles on the front). Therefore, Topps would print these 110 (with the DP) cards on the first 10 (of 12) rows of the sheet. The last two rows on the sheet would be the same as the first two. On the second sheet, the first row would be the same as the third row from the first sheet(the first two rows of the 110 card cycle are on the first sheet). This cycle would repeat and repeat from one sheet to the next. So depending on any given individual sheet from the first series, there will be two of (21 or 22 cards) and one of 109 cards(including two of the 107 DPs).

The sheet in the link is from the 2nd series with 87 cards, and you can see this trend on that sheet. I would think the first series would be the same
