Bob --
Last night I reviewed Larry Guy's book/pamphlet and am sure that the "drying them upside down" business is not a typo. It's clearly a part of his extensive (10 days) breaking in routine. As Karel points out, it's only during the breaking in period that this is done. (The first 5 days the reeds are dried upside down, after that they are put in a standard reed case.) Getting in touch with Larry Guy to find out the rationale behind it is on my (too long) list of things to do. It does seem counterintuitive to keeping the reed back flat, but perhaps he feels that the back dries more quickly and uniformly that way while it's still in its unbroken-in/unsealed state.
