Kid Elberfeld scans....Blue Eyes

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>This post was meant to be a response on the EPDG thread regarding the Blue color<br />enhancements in the 2nd Series of the T206 set. I will also post this on the EPDG<br />thread.<br />Anyhow, there is a color difference in the Kid's eyes on these two cards. After having<br />observed many of the Kid's Washington portrait card, I find it very interesting that<br />there is a difference in his eye color. The Washington version all have Blue eyes; and<br /> this blue color is consistent on every card.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.freephotoserver.com/v001/tedzan/elberfld.jpg"><br /><br />I realize my scan does not show a distinct (or clear) difference. Sorry, about this; but, please compare your actual cards and you will clearly see the Blue eyes in the Washington version.<br /><br />In the meantime, I will try to come up with more examples of the "blue enhancement" on 2nd Series cards.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Ted- the eye color difference on the Elberfelds have been known for a long time, and I think even we have discussed it. But more important, why is there no team designation on your New York card? Is it really missing?

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>Barry<br /><br />I have 5 Elberfeld cards....leave it up to me to scan the one that was in my<br />"junk-box" since the team caption was scratched off.<br /><br />I am not claiming that this is a new discovery. I was just responding to the<br />EPDG thread where the latest topic on it is dealing with Blue Color differences<br />in the 350 Series cards.<br /><br />P.S. I accidently posted this on its own....I thought I was doing a Respose on<br />that Thread. This post is now a Response on that thread on the EPDG Thread.
