I have the hardest time distinguishing between black and brown. But then again I am not very brown-green color adept, according to tests I have taken. I need to stick to other backs...
Cool cards in the thread!

There is a bigger variance in the Brown with the Lenox vs the Brown Old Mills
from card to card

But it's still like night and day if you put a Brown Lenox next to a Black Lenox

or even a Cairo Monopol

Well, well what do you know....here we have a "black" CAIRO MONOPOL back ! This T80 image has to be the converse printing error of a brown LENOX (and, just as rare).
Or, this scan was simply photo-shopped to appear "blackish".



T80's CAIRO MONOPOL backs were printed with varying shades of BROWN ink....such as this example.....
