With all the airbrushing happening on this card, it initially made me wonder if the touch-up guy at Topps took a bit of liberty with Miller's eyes, but on closer inspection, I don't think so.
I actually found a player who had even more piercing blue eyes than Miller. Sadly, he never had any cards, as he was a one-gamer. The few period photos of him were B&W, so it wasn't until visiting his widow and I saw color snapshots of him as an older man that I realized this.
