Not that we should ignore the colors, but don't let that be a big factor. When I was researching the Sweet Caporal 460 f#42 T206s that displayed a wet sheet transfer, 11 of the 12 cards either had a yellow or blue background. I thought the last card would also have one of these two colors for the background. The 12th card was Crandall (portrait with cap) with a red background. The wet sheet transfer is harder to see on this card since half of the transfer blends into the background color.

No coincidence of similar color sequencing.....it's my understanding that this was a common practice in printing years ago.
About a year ago, I posted this hypothetical simulated sheet illustrating this similar color pattern in this 48 subject format.
