1948 Swell Sports Thrills Counterfeits Help Please
I purchased a set of 1948 Swell cards and they came back questionable authority by PSA. My question is why were they deemed unauthentic?

James,
Did you buy them as originals? The set has been re-printed. The images do seem a bit grainy. Here is a link to a set sold. http://tinyurl.com/qdzta4s

Yes I bought them as originals in an auction and the auction had even claimed several thousand in book value for the set. I had never seen any of these up close before, but I was aware of the white reprints. These are more of a light tan color and the paper looked old. The grainy blotchy photos were probably the key that I ignored. I saw one other set like this with the blotches sell for over a thousand on ebay along time ago. I now keep these for comparison in case I ever purchase any more 1948 Swells.
