Default Need help. Are these vintage cards authentic?

Posted By: petecld

You really think they are real?

GET A RETURN GUARANTEE!!!!!!!

No one can tell 100% from just scans and I don't think the Ruth and Gehrip are real. There was a reprint issued in the 70s on bright white stock that had no mention of being a reprint on the card and the backs were printed in green. This particular Ruth and Gehrig are in that set. Those Ruth borders are really fishy.

The cards from the 50s look real and some scammers try to make fakes "seem" real by seeding them in with a few real cards lulling you into a sense of security.

Ask the seller to have them graded and offer to pay for the fees plus maybe a little something extra for his trouble - if he refuses - start wondering why.
