Although this is only tangentially related to vintage baseball cards, I still thought it might be interesting. |

It has a little cardboard tag early in the magazine which offers a year's subscription for $6 (or something like that--many magazines have them). Lemke said the reprints don't have them. |

Great, now I have to go check mine that I bought a few years ago from Slater's Americana for $200. It certainly had the appeal of being 45+ years old. |

1) Learned something new. I was unaware that SI Reprinted that issue. To help prevent deception, someone should examine a few originals and reprints to determine which qualites that distinguish the card sets. For example, even if the cards are similar, the printing and paper are likely distinguishable. The disemination of this information, including through my glorious and piercing newsletter, would likely squash any ilicit market. |

Take it back, I don't get a single magazine or even auction catalog to my home. Everything goes to the office or POB. |

Though unscientific, there's always the smell test. A genuine 48 year old magazine tends to smell 48 years old. I'm not sure if forgers have yet developed fake must. Any thoughts on this subject, Leon? |

MW, I could be wrong, but I seem to recall Phil Regly telling me that there are no #1's with a mailing lable on the cover. Only issue #2 and beyond. I know that no #1 I have ever owned had a mailing lable on it and Phil is the expert on SIs. |

Phil is still aroung. He is working for the City of Irving California. He was at the show in Orange County CA. I believe that he will be at the Cow Palace San Francisco show in Feb. He still deals in publications. |

I know mine passed the smell test at the time. I feel a little better. |

If there is a decent size show in the Bay Area, then Phil will be there since his parents live there. He was probably set up at Macrae's show since he set up there every year that I set up there. |

don't have the subscription insert, you should at least add that those which DO are genuine. |

Here's a question for the board: Do reprints ever raise the price of the originals? |

not really. Almost every significant set has been reprinted and prices didn't make any discernable jump when they came out. It may help create some new interest, nothing that willc ause prices to change noticably. |

There is a world famous dealer in ancient pottery, where forgery is a problem. He said said that one of his tests for authenticty is to taste (lick) the item. |

According to Phil Regly they were either mailed in envelopes or sold on the newstand. The second issue is the first with a mailing lable. |

for about $75 each (might have been a little more). They stated that they were actual #1 issues, not reprints. |
