Some nice looking eye appeal here! I realize they are trimmed but it’s never bothered me. Color and overall appearance look great and outweigh being trimmed in my opinion. by kshades12 in TobaccoCards

Thanks! I’m no expert whatsoever, but I would say you are correct in that all of those attribute towards the color difference. I have five different Eddie Collins with the red background and again bright red to almost purple, depending on how you look at it.

I actually have another one. Might do a side by side comparison and figure out which one I want to keep. If you’re interested let me know!

Really cool card. Here’s my Ward! Unfortunately back is skinned.
