Kid Elberfeld scans....Blue Eyes

This post was meant to be a response on the EPDG thread regarding the Blue color
enhancements in the 2nd Series of the T206 set. I will also post this on the EPDG
thread.
Anyhow, there is a color difference in the Kid's eyes on these two cards. After having
observed many of the Kid's Washington portrait card, I find it very interesting that
there is a difference in his eye color. The Washington version all have Blue eyes; and
this blue color is consistent on every card.



I realize my scan does not show a distinct (or clear) difference. Sorry, about this; but, please compare your actual cards and you will clearly see the Blue eyes in the Washington version.

In the meantime, I will try to come up with more examples of the "blue enhancement" on 2nd Series cards.

Ted- the eye color difference on the Elberfelds have been known for a long time, and I think even we have discussed it. But more important, why is there no team designation on your New York card? Is it really missing?

I have 5 Elberfeld cards....leave it up to me to scan the one that was in my
"junk-box" since the team caption was scratched off.

I am not claiming that this is a new discovery. I was just responding to the
EPDG thread where the latest topic on it is dealing with Blue Color differences
in the 350 Series cards.

P.S. I accidently posted this on its own....I thought I was doing a Respose on
that Thread. This post is now a Response on that thread on the EPDG Thread.

I thought you had just discovered the next great T206 error. Makes sense.
