T206 Criger color
 

Is this Criger a variation with the orange background or just faded ?

Thanks in advance.

It seems like quite often the key to these is seeing the back and whether there is evidence of discoloration...any chance to show an image of the card's back?

To provide more info--the discoloration on the back would typically indicate that the card was glued at one point in a scrapbook, and many people think (and have shown examples) that the glue used can leach some of the colors from the card.

The card looks like it is missing a pass of the bright red coloring. It might be possible to chemically alter the colors by soaking it in some sort of solution. So hard to say buy I've seen quite a few T206's without that red color pass so looks legit at first glance.

The card had been glued as there is paper loss on back. Thanks for the input.
