When i was working on my 1953 set in the mid1980's there were a lot of well known collectors and dealers who said the Mays and Mantle were faked.I spoke to dealers and SCD also wrote about it. Yes-even in 1983. Sorry, I can not help you with what to look for. After getting my Mantle and Mays, i sent them out many years later and came back with "grades". Anyway-yes-there was a lot of chatter in the mid to late 1980's about these cards.
