Head gasket - which side is up?

Hi
Quick question: Following a valve lifter job i want to install a new head gasket. I have one from Merritt, which is copper clad on one side. Does the copper clad side go down to the block or up to the head?
Should probably add that the gasket has Best Gasket standing on it and the engine is a 327 cui 1954 single carb.

Thanks and greetings
Roland
