Default Tints

Peter--I agree there are many color/tint differences in the 57 "muddy", as Anthony describes them, cards. It has been argued ( not by me ) Topps made more than one attempt to air brush out the guy in the background of the 57 Mantle card and that he exists in different degrees. It may just be wishful or inventive thinking

Default Mantle red dot

Hi Al,
The only red dot variation I have is the red dot over the S in Yankees, is that one you were referring to?

It's not just the air brushed guy, it's the overall tint of the whole card, IMO.

Richard-- there are two recurring red dot versions. The one you mention and one where the dot is in the upper right front border. There are a couple of examples on eBay now, including one offered as a variation...for a lot ( not me)
