User says, Yes it's real!!

I say it's not real, the white around the borders on front is too uniform across the top and down the sides. It would be amazing for a card to wear down like that, so I think it isn't wear, it was just a bad scan of a decent xerox reprint. I would like to hear from people that think it is real and are also willing to bid on it knowing there are no returns

Tough to tell from the scans provided, but I'd say not real. Check out the Cubs logo in both images.

Agreed...I would also say not real. The entire left side of the image is truncated/cropped. Check out the beginning of the "M" in Mordecai.

The image inside of the gold border is larger and is cropped tighter to make it fit. Witness his right shoulder. Look at how much of the image is not there compared to the slabbed example.The spur of "background" red that extends into the white of his uniform is completely gone. The Cubs logo is touching the gold, if not cut off. It is not only fake, it is a bad fake.

Definitely not real. I had stumbled upon this one, and immediately passed over it. Two things stood out: the facial features (there is a different tint on the reprints that stands out to me), and the Cubs logo.

Just look at the other items this person has sold. Not sure he would know a real one from a fake anyway.
