1958 Topps Aaron Blue Back

[bnorth]

Every Aaron card pictured in this thread is faded. I know 100% mine is. Can also guarantee the other 2 are also because of the dull yellow in the logo. I have seen very few real missing yellow cards and I have seen a ton of altered ones. Even on a real card there will be a little yellow ink on the card. You might need a powerful loupe/top lighted microscope to see it but it will be there. That yellow will still be a very bright yellow not the dull crap that is on the 2 cards that are pictured but not mine.

Missing color are among my favorite cards so I have done a ton of testing/experimenting so I know what is real and what is not.

Here is a cool Spahn card I done in stages.

Having seen this card in person and examined it closely I can say it truly is crazy to see how it fades out. I agree that all the blue background Aaron's are altered cards and should be graded as an A only.

Thanks again Ben for the help. Much appreciated

My blue Aaron, and a similar blue Mays. When one or two showed up at first they went for high prices, but then more and more showed up and the prices dropped. I guess it reaches a point when the real deal is worth more :-).
