Sorry for the crappy pic but its a scan from a slide that was taken so many years ago. Oh maybe 1972 or 3. Well before Albinos.
This pic is the genesis of high whites and high yellows. This pairings offspring was later paired with Newporter types, and high yellow was expressed. This pair produced dark and lite animals, both had individuals of reduced pattern. The black and white king was w/c in calif city area. The black individual came from my long time friend the late Ted Davis. We both worked at Hermosa Reptile, and he also worked at Mother Natures.
He collected those Black(dark brown) animals, at a site next to(in) LAX. He gave me one and also gave Ernie Wagner one. Which is a really funny story. I do not know what became of Ernies.
I have slides somewhere, but this crappy pic is all I could find on my computer.
