Yeah, I do a lot of 1962 green tint research, for lack of a better word, and the crop marks seem to appear after 4 cards down on the vertical. So on a print sheet (across all series, not just the GT's) of 12 cards down, these marks appear twice (after 4 cards down and again after 8 cards down), so you'll find them on the bottom of a ton of different cards and across the top of a ton of cards. But due to the vagaries of the positioning of cards on said print sheets, just because a print line appears on a particular card, doesn't necessarily mean each and every version of the card has it.

Case in point, card #135 (regular version) with and without a bottom crop line…

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
