Sometime back some blue 58 Aarons turned up and sold for high dollars as missing color variants, but some of our printing slouths. Ben and Steve I think, demonstrated that blue turns to green after a lot of sun or light exposure.I think Ben posted results of some experiments he ran.
Here are my Mays and Aaron. Fortunately I got my Aaron after the market imploded on them. The amount of blue varies depending on exposure. Some Aarons are much bluer than mine. You can also see yellow goes white ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by ALR-bishop; 10-12-2022 at 10:23 AM. |

The Mays is a really strange one, having a different color back. I'd have to experiment a bit to see how to make that happen with chemicals, as I don't think it's fading. |

Everyone needs to remember that 'savedfrommyspokes' Larry is the dream killer!!! When you've discovered an incredibly, historically new variation, he turns your life into a nightmare as he proves it to be nothing more than a fanciful daydream. And I should know, because like others, my head is a trophy mounted on his wall.

As Darren's collectorisms list grows seemingly daily, I may have missed it, but I am quite sure there should be a term for this scenario if there is not already. |

Sunny Strays comes to mind. But I don’t have the pizzazz that Darren has with these creations.

Asking whether a card is a ‘missing ink’ variation or just a card affected by overexposure to sunlight. See also: Sunblather - trying to convince someone that an obviously sun-bleached card is a rare, missing ink variation. See also: Fraudosynthesis - leaving a card out in the sun for a long time, and then attempting to convert the inevitable color fading into the energy of big-time dollar signs by calling it a ‘missing ink’ variation. See also: Sunspurn - not buying the bogus story being sold to you about a 'missing ink' card.

Missing the "I" in the "1961 BATTING LEADERS" line.
This recurring back obscuration can be found in varying degrees in size. |

I just can't accept that cheap Topps printers never ran out of yellow....even with all the stuff we've seen in this thread...never no yellow? Whoever sold yellow ink to Topps (always stocked up)...lived in a big house on a hill. Butch...leave that Stroud in the sun! Ed Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk |

Are these variations or print defects? | savedfrommyspokes | Postwar Baseball Cards Forum (Pre-1980) | 16 | 02-09-2013 11:52 AM |
