DEEP YELLOWS
DEEP YELLOW A (LIGHT PRINT) DEEP YELLOW C (BRIGHTEST) DEEP YELLOW B (DEEPEST)
These deep yellow (shown on page 2 of this frame) are fascinating in terms of how their
appearances relate to the printing details. The one that is clearly the lightest shade is due to
lighter inking. The remaining two have a similar depth of inking, however the brightest in
appearance has a distinctly lower amount of ochre in its mix.
It is apparent that there are a number of distinct shades within the shades and perhaps a
continuous gradation across the whole is better than trying to generate a series of different
shades. Based on visual appearance some separation into shades is possible, but when the
printings are studied closely a continuous series is a better description.
