Everyone else - Great observations. The main one I thought would be pointed out is the green background level near his glove; however, the dark splotch in the upper-left of the blue background is an indication of the richer (and browner)-color version. In the past, I thought that that blue splotch was part of an overall heavier application of blue ink, but that doesn't account for the green height-level difference, or the 'brown vs black' difference. Almost looks like a heavier layer of black was applied in the left card, and in the right card - an additional brown layer on top of a light black layer. That heavy brown/light black could also account for the different look of the face.

I will compare the backs/fronts of the 13 images I have, plus the 13 that Dave was nice enough to link us to, and see if I can find a front/back correlation.
