T210 Orange Border Discussion

[Vintagecatcher]

Hi Jason,

Or perhaps they initially created an orange border test sheet and liked the looks of the red border test sheet version better.

From what I have seen in other issues is that when ink runs out during the printing process you can see a graduated fade as the last color run is added.

I think thats a feasible scenario as well. That would mean the Series 3 cards would have been the first tested as no Orange cards have been found in other Series. And it would have had to been quite a few test sheets as some OB's have 6-8 examples known of a few players.


Dave, your thoughts stick with the accepted theory of the OB's creation and could very well be correct.

Thank you Ben! My recent pickup of your Hornsby card got me a step closer. I missed out on a few of those in the last couple years.
