Color Variations For variations in art and text, visit the regular variations page. This wing is dedicated to the most diehard collectors of Chick Tracts. (It's not a complete list, but a good start.) Listed here for the convenience of those who want to know are the variations in the color on the covers. This can be the difference between red and orange (The Attack) or two different shades of yellow (That Crazy Guy). This wing will be as detailed as YOU want it. Our purpose here is to list changes on covers only. We will not be dealing with any color variations inside the tracts. Those are already mentioned on the other variation site. To confirm the existence of a color variation, please notify our color variation expert, especially if we are dealing with shades of the same color. For example, if we have a tract that comes in two different light green colors, we might have to specify that one is lime green while the other one may be kiwi green. Let him see them to be able to compare and label them accurately. If you know of a variation, please contact him at vati5@juno.com.
