Real or Reprint?
I came across a couple exhibit cards of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. I suspect them as reprints, and I believe I obtained them in a box of old baseball cards about 7 years ago. For years, I didnt know these were rare, and in some cases valuable. I was recently asked about them and decided to research these, and I saw an article stating that there were no pre-war reprints of Exhibit cards known of. I cant believe these are genuine, but could you possibly take a look at the attached pics of these cards and maybe help me identify whether these are reprints or not? Again, I think they are reprints, there is no way I could be so lucky to come across something like this by accident.
I believe, from research, that the Babe Ruth is a 1921 Exhibit, probable reprint, and the Gehrig is a 1925.
I want to submit these for authentication to PSA, but since I am so unsure, I dont want to do that and pay their prices for them to possibly come back as reprints.
What do you think?
