Why bother?

Wouldn't pay a nickel for it. At least we agree on that one.

I can see it now, in a few more years someone forging reprints and trying to get them slabbed. But would it really be forgery if you're just copying something that's already a copy? I'm confused.

Sounds like a comedy skit to me . Can a reprint get an AUT?

With so many fake 1983 Topps 1952 Mantles, I get mine slabbed.

And then the next thing to worry about, trimmed reprints!

100% real authentic genuine forgery of a reprint.

It reminds of the juice I just bought at the gas station today. The label reads 100% real imitation flavor!!!

I can imagine the day where there is no room left on the TPG label, or the label is bigger than the card.
