1926-29 Exhibits - Color Tint Variations

[h2oya311]

Okay - so I am officially addicted to this image and this card. Not only do I have seven tint variations but I just picked up the matching 1928 Press Photo (International Neesreel). Yikes!!

Please let me know of any color variations I'm missing!!

Here's the only one I know I'm missing:

That's a great color tint run, Derek. I think you may just need yellow and red/pink. Here's the run that Brad has for Lefty Grove: link, and the yellow and pink/red Ruth's I have.

Nice Ruth's Gary!! Do we know if all colors were produced for each player? I've never seen a yellow or pink of Klein.

I had seen Brad's Grove tints, but wasn't sure if the same color variations were produced for each player. For instance, I've only seen a few color variations for Foxx.

Thanks for posting a link to my group of Grove Exhibits, Gary! I think there is another brown tint that I have that is not shown in the group at the link. As far as I can tell, there are a few other tints (red and pink, for example) of other players that I haven't seen for Lefty. That's not to say that they don't exist.

There are a dozen different example tints of Gabby Hartnett shown in Adam Warshaw's article on the Postcard-back Exhibit set printed in Issue #12 (Summer 2007) of Old Cardboard magazine. They include nine different tint variations used with photographic background cards and three different colors used with silhouette background cards. As Adam indicates in the caption, the examples are representative but do not illustrate the full range of colors found in the set. The cards are pictured on page 33.
