Looks like the probstein auction has been ended. I have a feeling someone is going to lose his card grading privileges. Both cards are pretty significant forgeries as far as hobby history is concerned.

I see the real problem as incompetent tpg's.

David,
No one is perfect. As printing technologies improve so does the ability to create better and more precise reprints and forgeries. I could show you some that would make your head spin. That's why there is great value in the opinion of a TPG and a well-educated collector. |

When it comes to forgeries and altered cards, opinions should have nothing to do with it. Condition Yes, that is opinion. Forgeries and alterations are science.

Awesome work!
So why did the exact card (barring the name change) get such different grades?? PSA 5 down to PSA 2. I'm not a conspiracy theory kinda guy, but maybe there's some collusion w/ PSA graders who wanted the card to not be traced back to a Magee PSA 5 and/or didn't want the card to get even more attention as a "mid grade" example vs a low grade example. Just sayin'!!

I hope Joe looks into it real closely. That card, had it been legit, should not have gotten a grade of 2 unless there was some new undetectable paper loss.
