1972 Venezuelans again
 
I know there was a prior thread on fake 1972 Venezuelans that had been slabbed. Can I get some opinions on whether these two are real? Thanks.

The Seaver is authentic, the Robinson is counterfeit. Whoever counterfeited these ten years ago or so in Venezuela apparently didn't have access to some of the cards, the Seaver being one of them. I have never seen a fake Seaver. If you compare that fake Robinson to the real Robinson that I posted a scan of you can tell the obvious differences. Another telltale sign is that the authentic Seaver has residue from being in a booklet on the back of it, and the fake Robinson has a clean white back. It is almost impossible to find an authentic 1972 Venezuelan that was not removed from an album, and all counterfeits have sparkling clean white backs.
