'61 Post Red.

Extreme difference in quality and color with this card. No premium for either.

You can get a perfect registration Blue bgrnd.

Or a gray slightly out of focus one.

I've given up on them all, but most 1961 Posts can be found with this like with widely varying color differences in the images that seem to relate to different productions and not just differing levels of ink at the moment a particular sheet was ran.

I'm assuming it's already known, but besides the color difference, I noticed there is also a big cropping difference between those two 1961 Post cards. Most notably the amount of hand appearing below his chin...

The two Red Schoendienst cards look different because they came from two different cereal panels. The top card came from a 12 oz Post Toasties panel and the bottom one came from a 14 oz Raisin Bran panel. It is common (in fact a certainty) that a player's cards coming from different box panels will have differences. Could be color. Could be picture cropping (look at the difference in the Schoendienst hand at the bottom of these two cards and you certainly see more of his hand in the lower card). Adhesive marking (or lack of) on the back of the card is another clue for some of the players.

Um...you do realize you referred to the exact same thing I did (with pictures) in the very post before yours (and 48 minutes earlier), right?????

Sorry, I don't see where you referenced the cards came from two different cereals as Ken did, nor did you ID the cereal "flavors", or the adhesive markings that he noted.

Thus I don't think you can say quote "you do realize you referred to the EXACT same thing I did" Rather he EXPANDED on the differences. And noted one thing of many in his post that mentioned the same cropping difference as you did

I thought NET 54 was there for information/learning etc. not who is first with information.

Wow, Fred. This guy is something. Totally agree with you and thank you. Way more information provided than this gentleman. And in the second post later, went even further.

And for those of you who don’t know Fred, he is absolutely on the top tier of (Post Cereal) collectors. And very knowledgeable. He’s also probably the top Hartland collector, exhibit card collector, and Salada coin collector …. among other things. He collects an awful lot of different things and is has to be one of the top collectors in the country. A go to Guy for sure.
