Default Hey SHAMMUS, JIM R....et al

Here are some more "wannabe" RED cards that are either PINK, ORANGE, or partially PINK. These T206's
and the T210's were both printed by American Lithographic using the same multi-color process. When a
printer missed the final (RED) inking, the result is either a Pink colored card or an Orange colored one.

I will repeat, that your PINK T210 and Jim's PINK T210 are simply the result of an incomplete printing run.
These PINK cards are not bleached....sun faded....or otherwise. The lack of a gloss on them reinforces
what I am trying to tell you. The gloss was applied in the final step in the production of these OLD MILL
cards. You say that your PINK card has a "flat" appearance....and, that is consistent with my argument
that it is simply an incomplete card.

I do not have a color error T210, but these T206's illustrate my contention here......as it also applies to
T210's (and, for that matter all BB card issues both then and now).
