I was more than curious about the seller who is from the state as me and claims to have found a treasure load of pre-war cards in old books at a yard sale. Checking the scans, it sure appears to me that the bottom edges have some perforations on them. Maybe it is just these old eyes but I emailed him that I felt he may have run in to some 1980ish reproductions. I believe these cards were reprinted by somebody and inserted into a card magazine or book and you were to tear them out. The scans are murky but what do y'all think?

These sellers just have to learn how to take better care of their reprints...and come up with better stories - already heard this one 1,000+ times.

I emailed them last night ( I have mostly quit doing this ) as this one looked like they might actually just be naive. The response I got showed that they were probably just that....naive. I know they could just be bs'ing me but they did pull the auction and seemed genuinely surprised....oh well another one down....regards all

is the kind you would see between a Rembrandt and a Norman Rockwell reproduction...in other words, there ain't much.
