Maybe this is just due to the way the shading was depicted when the card was painted? I had always assumed that this set was made using the flexichrome process, where an original (black and white?) photograph was painstakingly colorized with ink/dye. Not quite sure why they would have done this, as color photography could have been used, but I will add that the "painting" feel to the set makes it one of my favorite football sets.

All just assumptions on my part - can anyone verify if the flexichrome process was used for this set? I think the 1962 Post football set was also done this way.
