4c Colour Variation

[Idris]

Anyone else notice the recent Ebay listing with an interesting colour variation of the 4c?

It seems to match the production methods used on the 'Yesteryear' #15 Rolls-Royce with Knobbly tyres and 'Pin' bracing between the bike and sidecar and then a later production with Smooth tyres and 'Flat Plate' bracing between the bike and sidecar, so a colour shade difference is inevitable.

...so a colour shade difference is inevitable.

However, Nick doesn't mention it on his catalogue page and I find the colour difference shown in the above photographs striking enough to be worthy of note.

You can understand why in general, colour shades won't be added to reference listings like the one devised by Nick, because where do you draw the line, you simply could not add every shade spotted by collectors.

I agree with "Idris" on the model shown above, I can also see the shade difference on my laptop screen and would add it to the code listing.

Could there be something similar to what was devised for casting variations, more than Two examples and it can be included in code listings.
