Default Question about color variation on 1955 Topps Roberto Clemente

Hey guys. So, the 2 cards below were available from the same seller, who said that they were scanned at identical settings. He described the card on the left as having better color, and at first I wasn't so sure. To me, most '55 Clementes I have seen look closer to the one on the right... brighter and more saturated. However, the one on the left seems to have thicker, darker, denser color (and a bit shifted more towards blue).

How do you account for these differences? Small variations in inks/printers used? Maybe just a stronger pass of a certain color on the left?
