Does this Gehrig look good or fake?
Anytime I see an un-graded card like this I always wonder, what do you guys think about this one?

Not a Goudey expert but my guess is not good.

Based on a quick glance at the scan, I don't see anything wrong with it. I don't love the feel of the lower right corner rounding...seems a little contrived, but didn't see anything at a glance on the scan that would cause me undue problems. That said, the touch test is usually the failsafe for me. The printing registration seems very tight.

Looks authentic, I would bid if it was on eBay. But at the end of the day, to be 110% certain you need the card in-hand.

added pic
I too am not really a Goudey expert but I can add a decent picture to a post as I did in the first post. If I had to guess I would say it's ok but would need it in hand to be more sure. Others might know definitively by the scan on the board. I should add that the printing looks a little bright/dark compared to the creasing and other wear.

Thanks a lot for all the opinions guys, and the added scans Leon. Anybody else got a feeling on this?

It looks good to me, but I see what Leon's saying. I've noticed that some ebayers are enhancing their Goudey scans, which almost makes them look fake - even the holdered ones. A '33 Gehrig I recently fished from the bay was definitely color-enhanced and definition improved, close to being past what I would consider acceptable.

I would also definitely want to see a scan of the back before placing a bid/making any offers.
