On the throwback uniforms only for these years.  Changed the NOBs to TONOBs (thinly outlined NOBs).    2002s had PABs (Peek-A-Boo Belts), 2009 had regular white belts (non-PAB) instead of red, and 2010 and 2011 went back to the [dreaded] PABs.

1950-59 Chicago Cardinals

Adjusted shade of red.  We currently had a darker shade of red, more of a wine for 1937-59.  This picture, shows what we have for 1935 and 36, but we had the darker color for 1937 and on:


But more photos, including these from 1940 through 1958 show that the color from that era should also be a little lighter:
