1934 Butterfinger color variations
I picked off a 1934 Butterfinger Lou Gehrig off ebay recently. However, I noticed that the color seems to be different than most other Butterfingers that I've seen. The one I won seems to be more black/white, while the typical Butterfinger seems to be sepia. According to Old Cardboard and the 2010 Standard Catalog, there is only b/w. Is this true or are there two variations? (not counting the ad types of course). I guess it's possible that the sepia color is because the newspaper like paper stock is exposed to light, but wanted to confirm if that would really be true.
The card I won is on the left, and a "sepia" version which I do not own (but grabbed the picture off google) is on the right.
