Default T206 variations

Posted By: Brian Weisner


Hi Ted,
T206's were printed by the American Lithograph Co., and were printed in a multi layer process involving 6 basic colors.

1. Yellow: foundation upon which other colors were added.

2. Black: Provides the border, as well as any black in the picture.

3. Brown: includes name and team designation, as well as brown in picture.

4. Blue: Printed on top of the yellow base becomes the light green of the grass and fields.

5. Green: dark green was added for green background

6. Red : Can anyone say No B's? Orange backgrounds instead of red?

Be well Brian
