Hi Craig - The cards missing red ink and printing anomalies like the Nodgrass were the result of quality control issues during the printing process. I don't believe that the brown Lenox were caused by an oversight or mistake.
Throughout the production of the T206 set back advertisement ink colors remained very consistent. That is unless an intentional change was made like with the Sovereign 350 forest to apple green or Hindu brown to red.
During the 460 series there were two backs that had a color change mid production, Lenox and Piedmont 42. I've been studying these two groups for a while and have a better understanding of them now, but there is still more to learn. I can say that it's my opinion that these subtle color changes were deliberate and not a simple mistake.
