Default Another T206 Wagner

A fake Honus Wagner card that has been artificially aged. The front was obvious, but the back was hilariously obvious. Tell him congrats for us!


Edited to add more specifics - the spidering visible on the back occurs in modern paper, not the cardstock used in 1909. You could leave a genuine card in water for days, heck probably in coffee, and the spidering that appears across the imperfect modern paper would not show up on the cardstock. If it were soaked in coffee, it would turn brown - but equally brown.

The front color is washed as it would be with a modern printer. Very obvious counterfeit.
