Very neat, probably just a inking issue, but produced a markedly different cap color. If it were a T206 you would be reaping a windfall, but alas the lowly T207 brings two responses so far

Very cool Mac. I wonder how the cap got the grey on it. I assume most examples are white cap?

Mac,

Ain't that referred to as the Fisher "Blue cap" variation and is listed in the guides and registry?

Uh...the Grey cap is the middle Fisher with the blue at the right for reference (in case you weren't joking ;-).

On the middle card the grey of his cap matches the deathly grey color of his face...nice card.

Certainly not my least favorite part of the hobby. However, I think you need to find at least one more to catalog it. It looks "off-white" to me. Nice card.

Hey, Mac!

I wasn't joking (shame) - although I wasn't totally off base (but only by mistake). Upon further inspection under high watt halogen light and spectometry, that is a grey cap! My thought (if I can save some face) is that it is an ink progression into the "blue" cap. Kinda goes back to what Fromme says that the Fisher, Davis, Lewis, et al are really printing errors - although I don't agree on the Lewis (at least). We good?

Editted to add: I find it interesting that the collar and shading on the "NY" is unaffected. Wouldn't those appear to be the same color and therefore ink run?
