I'm remembering now that there are some choral editions that have kind of an olive green cover that verges on brown. It's close enough that even someone who has no difficulty distinguishing colors would have a time deciding between brown or green. Those covers are rough texture, unlike the green ones, which are polished paper (though not as polished as the mint green conductor score series). -- David W.
