Actually, they all look like the brown bread at Outback Steakhouse...so I guess it is a shade of brown.

Default Brown
The other 3 or 4 I've seen have this same shade of brown.

It's not as obvious as an Old Mill, like Jim and Rob said.

Is it just me or is the paper stock behind the wording a different color on the black and the brown? The supposed brown Lenox seems to have significantly darker background...

card looks faded black to me.. and putting it up next to a black still made it look faded black... I would need a guarantee from the seller that this would cross over into an SGC labeld Brown lenox slab before bidding.

but thats just me..

Default Lenox...
Card looks faded black. With acute 20/10 vision, of course.

Default Not so mixed.
I agree with Ron, Jim and Rob A on this one. This Brown Lenox look a lot like (some of) the T207 brown backs (which are to me).

While some are definitively brown - there is no question when you hold one in person and scans usually do it good justice - others are more obvious in person, but the scans not so much. The latter usually have darker backs but the "Burnt Purple Hue" mentioned earlier is pretty obvious.

I look at them in person and don't have the "if you have to ask" feeling, but have scanned them and said... really?

Just my 2 cents.

brown Old Mill is a lighter shade of brown than brown Lenox-once you know what you are looking at, you will be able to see the difference. It is much more tough to see the difference in Lenox-you may be fooled in a scan but no way in person.
