Faded. Legit print variations do not look like that.

I don't think these are the result of sun fading .

Clearly sun fading on this Palmer card. The different card stock only appears in the 6th series...a brighter, smoother finished card stock was used in not only this series, but with the FB set that year also.

Well then I guess it’s just faded. It looks almost as if someone tried to toast it like a campfire marshmalllow. I guess sun fading can effect both sides of a card.

Series 6 has the really noticeable difference, with the smoother vibrant white stock vs. the standard cream back. Series 1 also has two stocks, but with a less immediately eye popping difference. I think Series 2-5 also have a stock variation, though the standard cream is more common in them. Series 7 I don't believe has a stock variation.

The stock differences drive me nuts sometime. I'm building only series 6 both ways for my set at present, using a completely arbitrary cutoff of how eye catching I find the Topps stock differences to be.

You could always split the card on it's edge to determine the stock difference.

Besides, cutting it in half will give me two cards instead of one!
