Adam (or anyone)...if you have some advice as to how to avoid buying counterfeit Ted Williams Exhibit cards, or can post some examples of fakes, please share. Particularly interested in the "9 not showing" variety. Thanks!

Those are cut pieces from the 4 on 1 series from 1929-38.
As far as the Williams, just understand that the card was actually made into 1961. Besides making sure the card stock is good, you would want to look for one of the earlier printings. Keyman Cards has a good guide to distinguishing the print years based on the manufacturing info at the bottom of the card. What you want ideally is some form of "MADE IN USA" in all caps. If it says "printed in USA" it is a much later card.

Thanks for this info Adam. I am pretty new to the vintage card collecting world and have a lot I need to learn. Unfortunately for me, the Ted Williams Exhibit I purchased a while back seems to be a fake. I only have two Exhibits, Ted and a Pete Reiser. Based on your photos of the Exhibit backs, my Ted has a gray back and the Pete has the legit cream colored back. Looks like I got screwed out of $75 on the Ted. I’ll take it as a lesson learned. Thank you again for sharing this information as I now have a much better idea of what to look for when buying Exhibits.
