Even, natural looking wear "patina"

Slightly glossy front

No gloss at all on the back, in fact rough feeling, like raw cardboard

No unnatural, trimmed off corners, no fake wear

No fake coffee or tea stains or artificial age

Normal looking 1950s printing characteristics when viewed through jeweler's loupe, ink-jet printing didn't exist in the 1950s

No fluorescence with black light

Normal cardboard stock for the card, not too thick, not too thin, but dense, no light coming through when held up to a lamp

Feels like an old card

Smells like an old card
