Not trying to correct you Josh, just making a statement. Some of them do appear black due to staining, printing variations etc. I don't think they are undervalued, they are sort of rare...

My first T206 was a PB too. And a HOF as well.
Not much for condition though. Somehow I've never given much thought to upgrading it.



I've picked up a couple nice ones, and they are pretty tough in better grades.



Graham I bought, Kroh I had for years and sent it in.

I think that Polar Bears are getting more recognition now than they did 5 years ago, especially in the 4-5 grade range.

Default PB Color

I have also thought that PB backs typically looked black because the blue is so dark, but if you take a good look there are several variations to the color.

get-attachment.aspx-6.jpg

The majority of the PB's appear to be the darker blue as found on the example on the left. I have also seen a number of variations of Navy Blue as seen on the example on the right. The example in the middle appears to be a fairly uncommon variation. As you can see it is very light compared to the other possible colors. It is not a faded blue, but rather a distinct color. Several subjects exist with this much lighter shade of blue.

If anyone has any thoughts I would greatly appreciate hearing them.

Thanks,

Jerry

I could say something that I would think is very funny right now but I'll just let it slide unless I here otherwise.

Well I was also asking about the legitimacy of a Kleinow catching Boston on this site and you all made me comfortable enough. I worked out a deal with the seller and here she is all caked in tobacco.
