I'm mostly a post-war collector but have been dabbling in some of the pre-war issues lately. One question I have is concerning the background colors on many of the 1933 Goudey cards. For the same player, some examples have bright colors for the background and others are dull or washed out. An example is the Rick Ferrell card - you can find it with a dark brownish-red background or a very washed out/faded background. It also shows up on the Ruth #144 quite often also.
My question is: Were these differences in color an artifact of the printing and released that way from the factory in 1933, or are they just showing the effects of Father Time with some copies fading more than others depending on environmental conditions?
