I found yet another "piece of the puzzle" as I was going through the collection. The Bill Sherman card fits perfectly in the bottom/right of the panel. As with the other cards, the middle part is clearly hand cut, but the outside edges are very smooth. It really does seem these cards are from a six card sheet. I posted a new picture of the cards in the original post so everyone can see. The backs are blank.

I'm not convinced these are from a scrapped sheet as I've never heard of a six card sheet. I'm still curious if anyone has any pictures of a '57 Topps uncut sheet to see if these six cards are in the proper position on the sheet.

Any additional comments or feedback are welcome. Thanks again for everyone's comments so far!

Check out Mike Thomas's excellent site. He has been piecing together sheet images for years:
