robert aBob,
I have a Blue Old Put Dooin that's mangled which kind of disproves my own point, but it's still clear that the majority of these cards were red.
I'm familiar with the "green monster" set which supports this theory a bit. That might've been an "orignal collection" or one that stemmed back to when the cards were issued.
Of course even folks like Lionel Carter were collecting these cards long after they could've been broken from the original groups.
