Noticed that a recent sale on the B/S/T thread had a Bemis E90-1 missing a color pass just as my e92 missed a least one pass as well.

Not a sign of fading or bleeding?

How many colors were used in the creating of this series? I have this awesome T51 proof sheet with all the different colors used to make that set:

Hi John,

Color pass missing for sure.

The normal E92 Bemis has blue in the collar. The E90-1 on the left has a darker gray collar and brim on the hat than my E92 example. Also note the lack of red in the face on my example, which is the middle card.

Gotcha. Yeah, the blue sticks out.

What do the backs look like? Adhesive evidence or clean?

Very cool. This one probably missed a pass too (though it's not Bemis, obviously) Any other McGraw's missing passes, while we are at it?
