These images are from an Etsy listing. We can revisit the whole issue of people "antiquing" their reprints, but I'd rather not. It just stinks. (And the idea of that card exhibiting four sharp corners should give anyone pause.)
Wow does that suck haha, but it's not really that big of a loss as ugly with a Tom of other cards. This one may be fake but the others are real, just not worth 800-6000 dollars by themselves...
