White 1958 Topps Bob Anderson 209
 
Hello, I assume this White 1958 Topps Bob Anderson 209 is probably a result of the yellow fading from exposure to light? I think I've seen other 58T's with color fading, particularly the Aaron card, which gets more notice due value. As an aside, I notice a lot of light scuffing on 1958 Topps cards. More so than other Topps cards from the 1950's. Is there something about the 58T's that make them more vulnerable to scuffing? Perhaps it is more noticeable because the 58T's have rich color backgrounds? Just curious.

Fading from light exposure, I have a few 58 yellows like this.


The 1958 Topps footballs have the same scuffing characteristic as the baseball series. Compared to other sets with large color blocks like this, it seems much more prevalent this year for some reason. Perhaps some slight difference in the stock?
