A cycle of relatively useless cards, These never really saw play.

Looks like Orcish Oriflamme.

Good against a lot of black removal.

If Wizards reworked the Wards to have flash, we'd have an interesting sideboard option.

Even in its day, the Wards were slow and useless. Opponent could hit your creature with Terror before this resolved. White players had efficient, cheap creatures with built-in pro-black like White Knight.

The errata states that the protection from black wouldn't remove black ward. Seeing as how this enchantment is white, I whole-heartedly agree.

I don't think this errata should be there. If you're going to Deathlace or something to kill this, then you DESERVE to get rid of it.

Protection from a Color is a really good ability to have, but just because I'd spend a mana on it, doesn't mean I'd spend a card on it, especially an Aura. Try these as non-Aura Enchantments that activate for an additional {1}?

But then we basically have the Circles of Protection.

Combo with Donald Sterling.
