Post scans on here and you will know in short order if they are good or not. The better the front and back scan the easier to let you know. Both issues have lots of experts on this board who will know, most will also point out if they are fake, why.

They both appear to be copies of some type.

The evenly rounded corners is an instant tip-off. I'd be wary that these were fakes.

I'd like to see some higher quality scans but they do look worrisome. Where did you get them?

My concerns on the E94 are that the Blome's Chocolate overprint is way too perfect. It doesn't look period to me at all. It looks like it was printed on the card recently. Also, the front appears to have normal borders while the back has virtually no border around the type. It looks odd to me.

Best regards,

Here are the pics sent to me when answering my B/S/T for E94's. Unfortunately fake.

Hi-
I believe I saw that card in the same holder at the Brimfield antique fair a couple of years ago. I believe the dealer was from PA. The dealer who had it said he did not know if it was real. I did not think it was, but I asked a friend with more knowledge and he concurred with my assessment. The dealer also had some of the Yuenglings. There were some real ones that my friend purchased (low grade commons and one minor HOFer), but the Cobb was there too and he also said it was fake. He told the dealer about them, but unfortunately, the dealer obviously sold them. I hope you are not out too much money on these.
