1969 stamps 12 stamp panels that don't match the checklists

[hcv123]

My understanding is the vertical panels 2 across by 6 down were released as a separate issue in their own packs. The horizontal panels 6 across by 2 down were issued as an insert in packs of 1969 topps cards (not sure which series)

There were no stamps inserted in Topps packs. They were a stand alone issue. The deckle edge cards and decals were the only inserts in packs.

If it is correct that the 1969 Topps stamp sheets were only available from the stand alone packs that only contained vertical sheets, where did the more common horizontal stamp sheets come from?

I have gone over the 20 sheets I have and they look like a complete set. As a checklist these are the 20 sheets with the upper left player identified. Anybody have any other vertical strips beside these?

The packs that I bought in 1969 had the horizontal strips.

Here are the two different versions of the 1969 Topps Stamp Bernie Allen, one is missing the S at the end of Senators.

On your 20 sheets, is there one stamp of Bernie Allen or are there two? The reason I ask is that there is a variation on his stamp, some have Wash Senators printed on them while others have Wash Senator, missing the S at the end of Senators. I would put up scans of each but I'm not near a computer at the moment.
