Jon may have found the answer with that image of the "type 2" green side box.
It also kills the theory of the "authentic boxes will ONLY have advertising on the side" deal though. I finally Googled images, and there are actually 3 different types of boxes (not including the white side one) ![]() This one is different, its a thin bottom loop "9" with "The Champion Nine" line, kind of a cross between the other 2 green sides. I would need to see a complete white side box with underwear now to be convinced they are NOT fake. I wish I had mine to look closer at now. When I did have it, it wasnt obvious it was a fake. But there still may be 4 types??? ![]() That glue, wear, and mildew work is very convincing, especially for the (precomputer?) era these (fakes?) may have been designed in. PS WARNING: If you dont like Porn, dont google images with the search words..... Babe Ruth Underwear

There is another of the white sided box tops on Ebay. This one has SIZE SM on one of the sides. I also have a white sided box top and have wondered whether it is authentic or not. The fact that all of these tops are molded makes me think that these are fakes.

A bit off topic but did anyone else notice that Gehrig's arms are three times the size of anyone else's in the above photo(s)? That man was a beast!
