I resized and rotated it but it still looks mostly like a blob to me.

Can't tell if that's Gandhi...or the creature from the black lagoon.

There were a lot of fakes coming out of Mexico. The member Roland_49 is our resident expert on Mexican/Cuban cards. Maybe he can weigh in on the matter.

1959 La Aficion set listed under
Foriegn cards Mexico.

Emailed them to get some info

Bogus cards Richard, Old Cardboard has no clue on these foreign cards.
If you don't believe me after we traded emails about these cards that's totally fine, there's been plenty of discussion about these cards in the past and many collectors have been burned.
All of these so called "La Aficion" cards have come from one seller from Mexico and he sells them every couple of months.
The seller is a low class criminal, I've tried getting him booted off eBay and so have others but they just keep ignoring our reports.
The seller uses two eBay IDs:
Barbacoa2015
Pokajurecords

I've had several of these cards in hand and they are just trash.

Its not about believing anyone or not. Stated that I had
recieved information that people believe these
are fakes. Also did not get this from ebay.
Just trying to get information on these from
as many different sources possible.

I noticed old card board has the 1959 la acfion
set listed in thier site and has an album to
accompany it. Some one went a long way
to fake these.

If anyone has any other info on these good
or bad I would like to know.

Thanks
