I wish they would try the scientific study made popular by Sesame Street called "Which one of these things is not like the other". I know T206 cards are nearly impossible to find, but maybe someone could offer up 99 real ones and put their Honus Waldo Wagner in the middle and try to find the one that doesn't look like the others.

Here is the guys last email to me from yesterday...

"I would quit drinking the PSA kook-aid ...who exactly at any of the card grading services are 100 years old and was around when the T-206 card went to print and has knowledge of how it was printed?"


Sounds like a strong argument to me!!

It is a good argument! So basically none of them can be considered real, including the Cobb/Edwards, and they are all worthless until PSA hires someone who is 112 and remembers pulling these from a pack. Now that it's settled, please bid accordingly on their auction.

So according to this guy, there is no verifiable way to authenticate any baseball card. In other words, if it happened before you were born, and you weren't there to witness it, then there is no possible way you can know for sure whether or not it is real.
