1914 Baltimore News Orioles - Ruth
Posted By: Mike
Can anyone help me on this issue ? Are their reprints of the Ruth card ( both red and blue) ? Please advise the best way to tell the difference. For example: the dot pattern etc. between original and fakes. I seen one the other day and assumed it must be fake, but I'd like to go back to this guy and see if it really is or not. How would you make the determination ? Again any help appreciated. Mike |

If it's a common home computer reprint, the card printing will be made up of multi color dot under high magnification. The originals ussed either red-only or blue-only ink. Computer printers don't have blue or red ink, and must combine other color inks to make pure red and pure blue. Don't look at just the writing or border, but all over the card. In fact, even modern professional lithography printers don't use blue and red ink anymore, and would also have to combine other colors. Even on a professional lithograph reprint by Topps or Upper Deck (if they made reprints of the issue), the image area of Ruth would likely have multi-color dots. |

The simple answer is if it's real it would be too expensive to afford anyway. |

Reprints of the Baltimore News Ruth were being sold on ebay a few months ago. The seller was listing 10 to 12 card lots of reprints that included both red and blue 1914 Baltimore News Ruth, 1915 Sporting News Ruth, etc. Lots were bringing $50 to $75 and the seller stated: These cards are reprints even though they do not have the word reprint on them. |
