There are also Brown lettered Lenox cards, which are almost as rare and valuable, but that's a story for another thread.

Sean, if you got a Brown OM for $15k, I am a buyer all day long!! Last few I know of went for $18k-$20k+ and the $18k was private and a fairly motivated seller.

Sorry, I don't have, and probably will never get a Brown Old Mill.

If I ever came across one, I would never have known. Can't see difference between certain color shades. Traffic lights can be a challenge some times.

So if I offered to sell you one, you wouldn't know if it was legit?

Even without Pat's comparison, the one on ebay does not look remotely brown to me.
