  1. Leave the sheet slot that corresponds to these cards empty
  2. Collapse the higher number cards down so there are no empty slots
  3. Fill in the empty slots with the "Cards that Never Were" that were apparently a giveaway at the 2005 National.

I'm leaning towards #3, but I was wondering what others have done.
In my sets that are in a binder, I leave blank slots for cards I have but for various reasons are not kept in the binder.

For non issued numbers, I note the card number was not issued on heavy paper about the size of a card.

Here is an example that was included in my 1961 set:
