I think we only have 2 true variations of the Hassan 30 no series notation Johnson - the Glove up (from series 1 production) and the glove down (from early series 2 production).

Pretty much all of the cards can be found in this 'bluer' toning, that makes the background looks much darker and leaves traces of blue in the athletes skin.

Here's some examples. Manley is an exact match of this type, there is clearly blue in his skin where there should not be blue. Hurley shows a similar affect, and shows how much cards could vary.

This blue toning happens in most T sets, in Goudey's, perhaps most clearly in 60's Topps cards. It is definitely more common in series 1, and most noticeable generally in green backed pictures.
