I don't know the real explanation, but running out or red ink seems unlikely. Every card on the printing sheet uses a combination of red (magenta), blue (cyan), yellow and black ink. As far as I know the Hill and Rentzel cards are the only ones with both variations of red and black names.

Football cards in general, however, have never been thought of too highly by the general collecting public, as well as catalog publishers, so it wouldn't surprise me at all if new variations are discovered in this set, or any of the older football sets. They just never seemed to get much respect.
