Hi Dave
I pieced together 4 scans of a 1st series partial (50-card) sheet to simulate a 200-card sheet....just like you noted.
Back in the early 1980's, I vaguely recall seeing such a sheet of 1952 TOPPS cards at Bill Bossert's store in Swarthmore, PA.
These TOPPS sheets were printed using 54-inch (or 55-inch) track width printing presses of that era.
