blue lone ranger

[thesharkman]

is it typical that the blue lone ranger shirt and pants don't often match in color (ie one may be darker or a different shade of blue)? the last few examples on epay have not matched and it got me to wondering....thanks!

I've had a few examples over the years and I think you may be seeing fade on those. Maybe pieced together rather than being originally paired up? My current example is pretty darn close, but I've oddly had multiples of just the pants, and just the shirts several times so I know they've been mixed and matched a bunch. Now also we're dealing with Ideal in the 1960's, so it also could be different material too.
