Howard, that's interesting for sure. I'm not sure how FKW deemed what is and is not authentic. We all know when you crop into an image, you lessen the quality, which is the case in what we're calling the fakes: cropped into the image resulting in less quality. We lumped the smaller card number in there somehow, so there must be a reason. I don't understand why a counterfeiter would crop into the image of an authentic card...
I bought a cheap Ruth Candy reprint just for this and received it in the mail today. Here's the much less than impressive "engraving" on the batting pose:[/B] ![]() ![]() Here's the engraving on a 1970's Fro Joy that was cut from a fake sheet: ![]() Previous Fro Joy reprint next to a real Fro Joy: ![]() Two real Ruth Candy cards and two real Fro Joy's corner to corner (note how similar the paper is): ![]() Last edited by Clutch-Hitter; 05-13-2012 at 07:38 AM. |
