122-Nixon, Willard
106-Astroth, Joe
167-Dorish, Harry
179-Chiti, Harry
161-DeMaestri, Joe
159-Courtney, Clint

I have found miscuts that show: (a) 147-Torgeson over 154-Pope; (b) 161-DeMaestri over 159-Courtney; and (c) 159-Courtney as the bottom row.

Your eyes are better than mine .

I am not 100% sure on the order of the eighth column - I used the remaining cards in the 101-180 series and matched them with the images as best as I could. I think it's probably right, but I'm still looking for miscuts to verify it.

Here are the photos for the miscuts (that I mentioned previously) that I've found in the eighth column:

I received a request for some close-ups of the left side, aka the “dark side”.

Fair warning: it gets really dim on this side, and not just because there’s some weird glare going on. The last 2.5 rows are incredibly hard to make out, particularly for the top half. It gets a little better towards the bottom, so hopefully these help.

And if I get lucky, maybe they’ll even be right side up this time!

Thank you! We should be able to figure out and confirm those last three columns now.

My miscuts confirm your order of the missing column.

Here's (a) Nixon over Astroth, (b) Astroth over Dorish, and (c) Dorish over Chiti.

Since 2015 i have been obsessed with recreating the 1956 2nd series print sheet using misprint cards. 300 and counting approximately showing/proving locations. After 7 years i reconstructed it through a painstaking process and then a year later the roller blanket used for lithograph shows up. Crazy.
I can clear the air about its authenticity, double prints and would like to meet the owner.

Send me a PM and we can talk. I still have it stored in a safe location, and happy to share it with anyone interested.

Did we get anything wrong? The other slit would have the Jacobs, Snider, and Berra columns repeated as the last three columns.
