I just won this W560 Hornsby off ebay, has anyone else seen one with a greenish tint? Is this a unique example? This is a first for me.

Never seen one like that. Neat.

w560s that are of the red/black variation have a few different tints to them, green being one....I'll try to post some scans when I get home tonight from work.

That green tint one looks nice. I picked up this orangish tint one recently, which you also don't see as often. The last two are the most common color tints for W560's.

Here are a few of mine. I think greenish and pinkish tinted w560s are pretty commonly found in the red/black variations, which are tougher to find in general. If I remember correctly, the multicolored variations were printed first in 1925 and then the second print run came later on in 1927. The second print run contains either red/red or black/black cards, not multicolored and I think you tend to see more of the dark orange and yellowish tinted examples, but not greenish or pinkish examples.

Hope that makes sense....heh...
