Well this looks like a classic case of 'Offset litho photo over-ride' where the photo plate creeps around the overlute roller spindle dragging the second image into view on the selected page.
In this case you can see the culprit or culprits,as there appears to be a conflict between Grommett and founding member of a well known internet forum,the chances of this happening are remote, and a quick check into the annals of printing history reveal that it last happened a long time ago to some machinery producing leaflets for an escaped prisoner who was running amok on Dartmoor got mixed up with posters for the Crufts dog show.
The likely cause is man versus dog when appearing together on similar plates,there have been various suggestions as to a fix for the problem,one being a plentiful supply of cheddar cheese which makes the person happy and smile too much leading to a totally unsuitable photograph for publication,and also to feed the canine friend when dangled on the end of a piece of string.
Low tech tricks for a complex high tech problem.
