Griffith also has an orange-ish background with a Brown Hindu back.



I've also noticed that it isn't confined to just portraits (not surprising) -- note Flick's lips with the Hindu back -vs- an OM back.

Hey Ted, I bumped your thread because I found a couple Hindus with the orange hue. I've also seen a Chance, though I don't own it.

I can't find any Southern Leaguers with the orange, however.

REA had a nice Hindu Tinker that is also orange:

Very cool Bryan. I hadn't seen this color variation on a Tinker until now.

Yeah, the Hindu backgrounds are usually a different shade regardless of color. The red backgrounds stick out a lot more than some of the other variations though.

Notice the different shades of blue on my Waddells. Also, Wallace's uniform looks brown on the Hindu, and gray on the Sovereign, and the Sovereign has more pronounced shading on his neck.

Clarke and Willis portraits tend to look a little on the purple side with a hindu back. I didn't have any comparisons for those cards though.
