My assessment is the same as Leon's. I have never seen a premium for any particular color. I personally prefer the backs that have the ads over the single letter (but that could just be me). Also, keep in mind there is a parallel version of this set that is much tougher to find with numbers on back and a different redemption offer on the back.

The #1 issue with this set and the grading companies are somewhat clueless about (or so it seems) is that the cards were 100% issued with the little top and bottom "extra white border" as you can see plainly on Leon's examples. If these tabs are missing then the card is trimmed and should NEVER receive a numerical grade. That being said some "high grade" cards in this set have been trimmed to achieve the grade. These were NOT strip cards that were intended or trimming and should be treated as such.
