The stamp looks good to me. I wish it weren't laminated as I can't be 100% on the color, but it looks good. Maybe with it in hand you can see it better and know the color is good more than from a scan. Congrats on the pick up.

Seems plausible that it was laminated to preserve the stamp if the owner knew he had something special. Terrible idea, but effective in preservation to this point. One concern I would have is trying to remove the laminate. I had a couple bring in some Goudey's to the shop I worked in back in the 80's and they had laminated them in a sheet form. There were bubbles and the laminate did not stick to every card so I bought the sheet and attempted to cut around each card and peel the laminate off where the edges were bubbled and exposed. It does not work while the adhesive is still sticky!!! That was 25 years ago and I wonder if the laminate has yellowed and dried where it might come off now. Anyway, cool find and I don't see any red flags based on the scans. Comparing the stamp under a loop to a known authentic one might help.

You can run the card again in the laminate machine using low heat setting. Once the card is out from the machine and still warm, cut open the edge and take the card out this way. I have tried this method before to remove a Jordan RC from lamination. Hope this help.

Laminate often binds to the paper fibers if under enough heat. If this occurs, you may ruin the card in your attempt to free it. I say let sleeping dogs lie. Congrats on the pickup!

What does "Old Put" mean?

Tim,

Looking at it next to other legit examples, the stamp is the right size. It has the right amount of space between letters and between the the old put phrase and the bottom phrase. Looks good to me. And it's definitely orange. Red E98s wouldn't fade to a deep orange color.

Nice find!! Exciting stuff.

This is why it's so hard to put theories together concerning these old cards. Something always comes out of the woodwork.

Rob

I doubt it was laminated because of the Old Put stamp. There were other cards in the collection that were similarly laminated. Also I am not sure how recently Old Put stamps became popular as a more valuable subset.

I don't know anything about these cards, but I purchased a Ty Cobb T205 years ago and it was laminated. I sent it to SGC and it was deemed fake. Hope this card is good.

This card may have come from the same print shop as that Walsh blue back Old Mill.
