Interesting.......I only remember the vertical strips and hadn't seen the horizontal one(s) before.

I don't have any answers,Leon but have to say that they are beauties and are already rising in value methinks!!
Ruth's confidence and power are breathtaking.

Not that it adds anything, but just noticed that the horizontal strip has the players position and team in small font along bottom border, while the vertical strips do not.

Assuming those are both period - I think maybe you've got two different issues there!

So Leon's horizontal strip shows that the Type B and Type D cards (Old Cardboard's Names) were printed on the same strip. That's interesting.
