I am familiar with these layers of colors in the process of printing, not only
T206's, but in printing any color picture. Nowadays, it has been refined
to just a 4 - color process. Nevertheless, I do appreciate your information;
it is very worthwhile reviewing.
I have several ORANGE background (normally RED) T206 cards; including a
Ty Cobb. How exactly did this color error result ?

It seems there must have been lighter tint of RED inking prior to the final
RED ink application. This would account for the "orange" printing errors.
For example a PINK tint over the initial YELLOW inking would result in ORANGE.
