Posted By: <b>Art M.</b><p>Hi Trae,<br />Your T206 Jennings, portrait looks a bit light (maybe faded). Hard to tell sometimes from the scans.<br />Here is a scan of a T206 Jennings, portrait that is missing some colors. You can compare:<br /><br /><img src="http://members.aol.com/rebelsart2000/jennings.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Trae R.</b><p>Thanks, I did some adjusting in photoshop (color levels) and it still looks to me like the red is missing. Here's a comparison next to a well colored Jennings.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.mlbvintage.com/misc/jenningscompare.jpg"><br /><br />Any additional opinions?

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>colors go strong and light during the printing process.<br /><br />I think this is just a card where they needed to bring up the red a bit (and probably did during the print run).<br /><br />If the red was missing, I believe the background would have gone yellow (on the left) to very light yellow or whitish... but your card goes toward orange in color (showing the presence of red).<br /><br />Looks like I could see some red in the cheeks too.<br /><br />so I say not missing, just ran light on press.<br /><br />jmho.
