Twenty-one of the 23 cards, which I have posted (so far) in this thread, are original cards from 1949 LEAF wax-packs.....when I collected these cards as a youngster in 1949.
I'd say most color variations found in these cards are NOT due to "environmental, chemicals, or otherwise" factors. These variations were printed as such in the LEAF factory.
