It's interesting that you said this Steve because for awhile now I've contemplated starting a thread about the Bill Abstein T206. The majority of them (fronts) that I've seen have a red background, but quite a few, like this one I have, are clearly orange. I don't have a red background Abstein, but will post another card with a red background for comparison purposes.

This Abstein with the orange background is a Piedmont 350 Factory 25. My question is- was this orange background intended to be orange? If it's just missing the red pass, could this possibly be placed on a sheet of other cards from the Piedmont 350 series that are legitimately missing the red pass? Also, since red is a primary color, would they lay down orange just to put red over it? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Sincerely, Clayton

P.S. I posted the back to show there was no glue residue-clean back.

If you are going to crop your scans and not show us what it says on the flips, then you cannot play.
