1963 series 6 and series 7
The 1963 series 5 had 77 "unique" cards. However, it also had the 11 crop error cards pointed out by Lemke, so there were 88 cards, printed 3x each, in series 5.
The yellow/orange border checklist card was printed in the series 5 printing. So, yes, there are two variants of the checklist 6 card. One printed in series 5, one printed in series 6. Summary: Series 5 - 371 to 446, plus another version of 362 (checklist). A total of 77 cards. There are 33 Red border cards (11 green inset, 11 blue inset, 11 yellow inset), plus the 11 crop version cards. There are 22 yellow border cards (all red inset), and 22 green border cards (11 orange inset, 11 yellow inset). Series 6 - There are 66 unique cards. Numbers: 447 - 511, plus check 6 printed again (431). There are 22 blue border (11 red inset, 11 orange inset), 22 red border (11 green inset, 11 yellow inset), and 22 yellow border cards (11 blue inset, 11 red inset). Series 7 - There are 66 unique cards, Numbers: 512 - 576, plus another issue of check 7 (509). There are 22 Blue border cards (11 with red inset, 11 with orange), 22 red border cards (11 with green inset, 11 with yellow), and 22 yellow border cards (11 with blue inset, 11 with red)

Series 1: 1-88 Series 2: 89-176 Series 3: 177-264 Series 4: 265-352 Series 5: 353-429 Series 6: 430-506 Series 7: 507-576 You're implying that the Series 4 sheet must have included cards from #265 to #370 because I know from buying packs in 1963 that Series 3 ended at #264.

I also learned from my research that the #29 and #54 Rookie Stars cards were originally moislabelled/misprinted as "1962 Rookie Stars" instead of "1963 Rookie Stars". And then I found that the ones in my collection were the error cards labelled "1962". Now I need to replace them. Bummer!

So evidently there are two different 1963 Topps 2nd Series Checklists as well:
  Was one of them printed on the 1st Series sheet? Now of course I need to add two more Checklists, a yellow topped 2nd Series and a red topped 6th Series, to my 1963 Topps Baseball card collection. Are many/any of you other 1963 Topps Baseball card collectors content with just one of the Checklists for each series?

Checklists are usually DP’s. For example, the series 2 checklist would be included on the series 1 sheet, as a preview of the next series and to encourage kids to keep buying. That same checklist would also be included in series 2 packs.
This double printing results in variations of some kind on most 60’s Topps checklist cards.
