The inventory for Ship in a Bottle shows these two parts:
*
61287pb001 Cylinder Hemisphere 2 x 2 with Cutout with the Americas and South Pacific Reddish Brown Globe Pattern Parts: Cylinder, Decorated
*
61287pb002 Cylinder Hemisphere 2 x 2 with Cutout with Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia Reddish Brown Globe Pattern Parts: Cylinder, Decorated
...both indicating that the print of the continents should be Reddish Brown.
I recently tried to purchase the halves from a Bricklink Seller, only to receive
Brown continents, as per

61287pb005 Cylinder Hemisphere 2 x 2 with Cutout with the Americas and South Pacific Dark Brown Globe Pattern Parts: Cylinder, Decorated
and
*
61287pb006 Cylinder Hemisphere 2 x 2 with Cutout with Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia Dark Brown Globe Pattern Parts: Cylinder, Decorated
In discussing the situation with the seller, they said they had "Parted Out"
4 such Ship in Bottle sets, yet all the globe pieces in their inventory (including
another 3 or 4 pairs they already had) were the same ... Brown!
Is there some way to verify if the globes in the set might have been different
print colors throughout the manufacture run of Ship in a Bottle?
If you have a Ship in a Bottle set built, take a look at what color the continents
are for you ... perhaps Brown is a valid Alternate that should be added to the
inventory?

Looks like this should be an alternate. I built 1 and parted out 6, none of
them reddish brown continents.
So then the question is ... what is the procedure to ask for a change in the
catalog?
