The colored S74 silks happen to be one of my favorite items to collect. It also is a set that still has many unanswered questions.
One of the details that interests me the most is how many different color combinations exist? Not only does there seem to be an endless number of colors of the silks themselves, but then you can add the twist of multiple color inks for the portraits of the players.
Whereas, the white S74s have a paper backing that advertises four possible brands including: Turkey Red, Old Mill, Red Sun, and Helmar, I have only seen Turkey Red and Old Mill advertised on the front of the larger colored S74 silks.
Although I have collected multiple players over the years, I have traded all but my Chief Meyers' S74s away. Attempting to put together a run of color combinations of Chief Meyers will be no small task.
Here are a few of my Chief Meyers' silks:
Let's see how many color combinations the board can provide!
