Yeah, it just looks "wrong" ...........

Whatever printer they used did a decent job of the tiny ALC print at the bottom center. I wish mine did anywhere near that nice on anything.

I still get a kick out of the Gangs of New York-like donnybrook going on the background of this card while Mr. Mathewson rests comfortably in his garters...

It also makes me appreciate modern elastic cotton socks.

General rule of thumb: if a $100k + card is ungraded there's a reason for it. It's a terrible reprint as well

Possible reasons for voting real
1. Hoping to sell it to someone on N54
2. They also own the blue eyed Wagner T206 and will do a paper analysis on the Garter Matty to prove its old.

Shady scumbags in the hobby? No, I refuse to believe that.

The winning bidder looks legit. Some of those under-bidders do not. One or more appears to be a shill account.

And there's no question that the Boston Garter is 100% fake.
