I am sure there are many exceptions. This is just the science of it. Lots of factors beyond UV light alone affect faded baseball cards and any collectibles for that fact. Last edited by Wimberleycardcollector; 05-27-2021 at 01:23 PM. |

I have made threads about the subject with pictures to help fellow collectors not buy faded cards as rare errors. I have done many many science experiments and posted the results on this forum. I have never seen magenta fade before yellow in real life experiments on baseball cards. |

Could also just be the exposure / lighting that the pictures of the card were taken under.

Red fades to orange on my T cards, not magenta.
Not a true variation, but the different results from sheet to sheet vary greatly in the Topps vintage years. I keep a lot of different ones like this in my sets, even though they are really dupes. Can really change the aesthetic for better or worse. Cool example Robert! |

I have heard the red to orange fading on T206s. I also heard many of the orange Cobbs got faded on purpose. |

The red fading to orange on Cobbs is a perfect example of the yellow not fading first. Less red, more yellow equals orange.
