Default Subtle differences in the T206 set's 15 repeated designs

No argument here.....it appears that the T206 designers (or Amer. Litho. printers) got carried
away with BROWN ink in their 1st Series. As we well know Matty had Blue eyes; and, the Matty
portrait in this series does depict him with lighter colored eyes. So, the Matty (white cap) is a
strange printing.

Blue-eyed Cobb is another example of 1st Series Brown eyes vs 2nd Series Blue eyes (see above
scans).
