Does it fluouresce under black light? I lean towards real.
I have had the Babe Adams card for probably 15 years, and saw the Hoyt about 10 years ago. Until this strip I had not seen any others. And good info on the punctuation, and I find it interesting that they used the fun "Tygers" for the team name, which I seem to remember having seen on some other card issue, but for the life of me I can't remember in which set. I would have to dig out the card from the reprint rubble pile to see if it glows in the dark, and will eventually let all know the results.
