That's a really cool card. Surprised the comments are so negative. I'd love to own it.

Agreed. Seems to happen a lot on threads like this. Maybe it is envy, being skeptical or something in between but this seems to be the current status here. Just look at the Cobb BL 460 thread for negativity.

As far as a blank back Leafs are concerned, they absolutely do exist however they far more rare than wrong backs and are 100% legit. I think that SGC will holder them. And if I am not mistaken all blank backs and wrong backs are limited to just the short prints. Sure that Ted and Anthony could speak more to this.

I think Ted has said he collected Leafs back in 1948-49.

too bad it's off center. :-)

that's one hell of a nice card. Count me in as one who would love to own it. $30k might be right for the rarity? PSA 1's are going for $7500+

Besides, who ever heard of Leroy Paige??

Centering aside, the registration on the card is among the nicest I’ve ever seen on a Leaf Paige.

I'm not surprised as anyone with a minimal amount of hobby knowledge and common sense would have a card like this graded before selling to maximize their return. So either he tried and failed, he really is that stupid or naive, or the card is fake. The situation with that Cobb is extremely rare I would assume. For every one of those stories there are 1000s of fakes listed with similar descriptions on Ebay.

The card is real and I will get it graded. But I am not stupid. I have been selling some nice cards. This card came from the same one owner. Out of the same one box. No harm no foul. I'm learning a lots about cards. This is just another lesson. Thanks

^^+1^^ I would love to own that card ungraded, but way out of my price range.

[Meenman]

I really didn't think it would sell for that. But I was hoping it would. Good advertising anyway. I don't know what it's worth but I will find out soon. I've only been selling cards for 2 1/2 weeks. And I am honored to be able to sell these. What a great way to learn. I am a veryl ucky man. They say God looks out for baby's and fool's. I'm covered.
