|  ‘73 Topps color variation 
			
			Sorry if this is already been covered in detail before, I know there was a similar thread a  while back discussing variations on manager / coach cards. Am I the only one that hadn’t noticed this? The picture looks totally different...  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

			That seemed to happen a lot with 1973's.  I always just figured it was different times in the print run.  If it's printed early in the run, there is lots of ink and everything is a bit too dark.  Later on in the run, everything is starting to look washed out as the ink becomes depleted.
