Excellent ideas from everyone.

I had my '67's until 2000 (when they were stolen); they had been stored in shoe boxes in a regular closet with my other cards until about 1988 (and hadn't been handled since about 1973). I got them out again in 1995, when I started to collect again.

From the time I took them out of the packs back in the day to the last time I saw them just before moving to Atlanta in 2000, they always looked the same: perfectly white and green with only the odd imperfections that they had been printed with by Topps.

That's why all this is such a mystery to me. None of my originals seemed to be bothered by these color problems and none of the other card issues from that era have any of the same looks.

I think it may be that I've just had bad luck in buying and trading for cards that have "soured" or "spoiled"!!!

Default Variation

Thought I would chime in on this variation debate. I found this Dick Kelly card.

It is low grade, but in person it definitely does not look faded. It looks like the back was originally yellow, not green.

Cheers,
Patrick

Another conundrum added to the mystery! Thanks Patrick.

I still don't know what caused all these kinds of fading/miscolored cards in this set. As I said when this thread was originally posted, with the cards I have these kinds of miscoloration only show up in the 1967 set.

Any new ideas? Anyone?
