I e-mailed the seller and told him it was a fake. Looks like he took it down, I don't think it was sold.
As much as you can make a definitive statement based solely on a scan, the spider veins in the background of the upper part of the photo are a giveaway. There are many fake Pittsburgh/Homestead photos from that era which show up on e-bay occasionally. Every one that I have seen has those spider veins throughout the upper part of the photo. Color of the photo matches all known fakes, I have no doubt. I was fooled once early on in my Negro League collecting days with a similar photo purchased on e-bay, never again......
