Mac, I saw that batch turn up on eBay recently and decided to pass. I saw a bunch of folks chasing the Ruffing, but none of the cards looked good to me. On the ones I have, or had, all the color except red is applied very precisely. If you look at the blue on the socks of Demaree, there's no color that spreads beyond the edge of the socks.
Curiously, because of the batch I found 13 years ago, my brother has kept an eye out for these on eBay, and he actually managed to find one: a colorized 1940 of Bill McKechnie.
