Help Needed Researching Counterfeit T206 Honus Wagners

[Archive]

Hi All,

First post on here.

Me and others are having a discussion about this card as someone on the eBay discussion boards brought up if the value of a reprint of this card "Do any of you think that the Honus Wagner reprint(you know the one!)ever be considered a valuable and collectable item. Do you think it will ever a attain value on it's own merits and scarcity?" My response was "What merits and scarcity?? It's a COUNTERFEIT! End of story. And being a COUNTERFEIT it can and will be printed off by anyone and everyone that makes these so how could it EVER be scarce??" Probably could have done without the caps but being a regular on eBay can make you snap.LOL!!

If anyone wants to read it http://forums.ebay.com/db2/thread.jsp?forum=83&thread=410396141&modified=1103115862878

Question is does anyone know if all the counterfeits are just doctored reprints? I assume that all the ones on eBay are just doctored reprints but I have seen where this card has been counterfeited at one time. If anyone has any links,articles,pictures etc on this topic it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
