My immediate response from the scan is it is a reprint. The coloring, corners and back just don't look right to me.

I agree with Leon. The bright white back and corners don't look right to me either.

Does the black light test work on exhibit cards?

Corner wear looks manufactured, but if you think it is real send it to SGC or PSA.

I always get suspicious when I see a card like this. Somewhat rounded corners, evidencing that it has been well handled, yet still showing no corresponding blemishes on the back and the edges show no hints of dings, chips, or wear (look at edges from the back). Such uneven wear nearly always makes me stay away.

I know this is hard to see in the images but just having received a bunch of 20's exhibits back from SGC the card appears thin. I agree back looks bad as well.

Just for kicks I sent this to comc and they listed as
1925 Exhibits White Box Lou Gehrig Poor to Fair. What do I do now? |

If you were sure this was a reprint why would you send it to COMC and now you want opinions as to what to do?

I have not listed it. I had the card laying around and figured what they hey send it with my next comc batch it will probably get a reprint or whatever designation but maybe someone would buy it for $5.

I would NEVER knowingly defraud anyone. But what if they could be right? In the original collection there was some legit older stuff and while the 4 or 5 posters gave their OPINION that it is a likely reprint, what if it's not?

I don't see it in the "Sold Out" listings for 1925 Exhibits. Can you send the link to the page the card is on?

If you legitimately believe that there’s any chance that this thing is genuine then send it to a legit TPG for confirmation. If not, get it back from COMC or make them add reprint to the listing. Doing what you’re doing now lacks integrity.

Adam, what are you talking about? I haven't listed the card for sale it is sitting in my port. It was sent in to sell as a reprint for $5 or so but someone at COMC graded it authentic, so I'm at the phase trying to get the correct determination. The unethical thing for me to do right now is list that card with a high price. Understand the OPINIONS I got from the board members were based on scans and those folks even cautioned me their opinion is not the same as if they could hold the card in hand. I can't tell you how many times I've posted a card on a message board and the opinions didn't bear out. For example, I bought two raw '80 BB Henderson RC that I thought could get 8s, and posted them. Almost every single poster commented that they would get less than 8 based on this and that. I sent them in. Both cards got 8s
