Default 1949 Bowman color errors

Just wandered over here and saw this....one of my favorite subjects. I'm showing here a small sample
of the various color printing errors that can be found in the early Bowman sportscards sets.
The 1949 Zoldak you depicted is one of 17 cards in the 3rd series that can be found missing its pastel
background color. I refer to these color errors a SLATES. Shown below is my 3rd series uncut sheet
depicting these SLATE cards.

I wrote an article about all the possible SLATE cards that can be found in the 49B set (1997 issue of
VCBC). Most of the SLATE cards are found in the tough Hi# series (#145-240).

I'll welcome any and all questions you can throw at me regarding these cards.
