Very nice detective work! Nice little clue to the layout of the early Series 1 sheet(s) as well.


Here's another contribution, though I can't yet make out what the text is on the first Klaus in upper left to ID what back is showing.



A small oddity here, these 3 Klaus cards are all Factory 30 backs. While breaks in the thin black border on back are ubiquitous throughout the set, Klaus has a recurring print defect (RPD) on the front, with these two gaps in the upper right. I only observed this recently and have not yet seen it on a factory 649 card. There's a few RPD's in T1218, the McGrath 'finger splotch' shown previously in this thread being the only really cool one, I think. Would be interested in your guys' Klaus cards, if they do or do not have this border gap and which factory(ies).
