Tom,
You got it right on the yellow letter Cox/Brinkman MBs.
The white McCormick #400 card is a true variation because it was corrected by Topps to yellow team letters in subsequent print runs.
The yellow letter Cox/Brinkman cards are scarce, but the white lettter McCormick variation cards are much more rare.

The Brinkman / Cox white letter cards was an uncorrected error issued in the regular issue 1968 Topps set.
The Brinkman / Cox yellow letter cards were correctly issued in the Milton Bradley set ONLY. Therefore, if you have the Brinkman / Cox yellow letters, as I have, they are automatically from the Milton Bradley set and thus should have the brighter back.
I will check my copies later and get back to you as to what I have. This will be quite a revelation if true.
What about the yellow / white McCormick variations. Does the same apply here?
Thanks,
Tom
