Posted By: <b>ty_cobb</b><p>If there's no 'IE' text there's no error, <BR>and the statements of SGC and PSA tell<BR>all. This is just like the guy with the<BR>T207 claiming its a Red Cross when there<BR>is no advertisement. I don't care about<BR>how ethical this guy is, a Spade is Spade,<BR>and in this case its a Joker. <BR>

Posted By: <b>jeff s</b><p>and it's really tough to evaluate the card based on that scan. i'd be curious to see it under magnification, though like I said, there's more than ample reason to be skeptical. but...all of us who have had untrimmed cards returned for evidence of trimming know that the responses of grading companies can never "tell all."<BR><BR>one does wonder, though, why that particular spot would ever be rubbed out of an actual Magie error -- seems unlikely to have happened by accident -- kind of like those cards where the spot where "reprint" appears is the one spot with paper loss.

Posted By: <b>David</b><p>To me it looks like a stretch. However, if he feels it's legit (and who knows, perhaps it is), I'm sure potential bidders would be the last to complain if he provided closeup scans.

Posted By: <b>MW</b><p>Doesn't everyone just HATE IT when a small tear or rip obscures a seemingly valuable variation? Hmmmmmm....<BR><BR>Compare the space between the "G" and the "E" on this card to the REAL variation. Also note the relative position of the comma after the "E." (with respect to his bottom uniform button).<BR><BR>Based on a cursory visual inspection only, it is my opinion that this is the more common of the two varieties.

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p>I have never seen a Magie error card with a Sweet Cap back, I've owned 2 and both had Piedmont 150 backs. Has anyone seen a Magie with a Sweet Cap back?<BR> later Brian
