T206 lake with super bad sunburn but why?
 

I would like to thank a couple of guys on this board for turning me into a "freak". I don't know if this is good or bad!

My Joe Lake Old Mill Double Namer has a super bad sunburn but why?

Craig....
 

Great card! looks like the color(especially) magenta has shifted a tad upwards.....

Rick James would be proud;)

Welcome to the freak club....you've been bitten!:)

best place to be.......:D

Looks like poor registration created that freak. Nice one though.

got to love dem freaks! Real nice card.

Maybe my Groom and your Lake were hanging out and got too much sun...

Cool scan! You should put them in order starting with the lightest first as they progressively get darker and then re-scan them :D

Yes, then you would find that the 'sunburn' versions also have more of a violet background, due to the extra red.

the sunburners....
 

these deviations are really fun:D

You can tell that Lake has an Old Mill back because of the scroll lines in the top & right border.

Craig, you might be a new "freak" collector, but Johnny is the "Freak King"!

I mention this because everytime Johnny posts a new freak T206 pickup, I say to myself "That frea-king Johnny!" :)

Neat pickup Craig!

You just made my morning with that one! Thanks!

Jantz...thanks for pointing out the scroll lines in the top right corner margin making it an Old Mill reverse without looking at the reverse.

That's why I love this board; I learn something new about T206's almost daily.
