Default Wolverine News - Ty Cobb Batting

I have come into the possession a copy of the above captioned card and wonder if anybody has encountered any counterfeit specimens. If it is, the guys that produced it are good, very good. It measures right, has the right patina on the obverse, appropriate aging, faint wrinkling in a few places, tiny spot staining and passes the paper sniff test. I have become such a cynic that I can't believe such a card could creep onto the market without being suspect. Any experiences? John

There are fakes out there. Relatively easy card to reproduce as the original printing wasn't of the best quality. Have pics?

The easier or more suspicious way of acquiring it the more likely it's a reprint. Coming from someone with some suspicious card deal experience.....
