I am positive the Aaron sheet and the Torre sheet were printed together on a 264 card super sheet with the Aaron sheet on the left and the Torre sheet on the right. Both of them have a recurring print flaw with splattered blue ink on several of the cards in varying degrees and the affected cards on the right edge of the Aaron sheet match up with the affected cards on the left edge of the Torre sheet.

In 1973, there are two different versions of the sheets. Some of the sheets used a 6x2 pattern (i.e., six different rows printed twice on one slit, while the other slit had the same 6x2, but with a different set of six rows) but then there was a slit that had 132 different cards on it.

Looking at the slit with Aaron/Mitchell, I see one slit has 132 different cards, but Aaron is at the top while the other slit has the same 132 cards, but with Aaron leading off row 7 instead. I see the same thing with the Rose sheet, i.e., one slit has Rose at top with Russell in row 7, but a 2nd slit has Russell at top and Rose in row 7.

So, I would hazard a guess that there is a slit with Brett in C1 of row 7.

According to jmoran19 the 76 sheet leading with Rose is OPC so I would think the sheet leading with Mitchell is also OPC.
