Johhny has made a career of collecting such cards, and can explain this better than I can.
If you are interested, go to ebay and type in "T206 error." Dan McKee (a board member) has a huge set of missing color scraps that you can look at. Also, at T206Resource.Com there is a good article by Scott Forrest (another board member) on this subject.
Awesome! thanks ill have to look into it
