I can remember, many years ago, buying lots of Debbie Moller's patterns
(alphabets, initials et al) and they were very often printed on red paper.
I wondered at the time whether it was to stop illegal copying, as many
photocopiers at that time - we are talking about twenty years ago, if not
more - couldn't cope with very definite colours like red, dark blue and dark
green. I know when the company for which I worked purchased an
all-singing, all dancing, bells and whistles copier, which was the most
up-to-date thing on the planet, I was asked if I'd like to photocopy some of
these patterns on the copier, to see how well it performed. I think they
regretted it, as after that, every strongly coloured pricking I bought, I
asked if I could copy for myself, so that the purchased ones stayed pristine
...

in the book were on red card!
