The first question I have is...why would somebody fake a 1965 Bob Gibson baseball card? In very good to excellent condition, the card is worth about $20, and this card has seriously soft corners.

The card itself looks fine when compared to other examples. Nothing that jumps out to me as being a red flag. No red flags with the seller, either. Nearly 1,300 sales this year with only one negative (and he refunded them).

I don't think you have anything to be concerned about.

Welcome to the forum. Your card is not fake. It does have bad registration, giving it that blurry look--so much so that some apparently think it looks like Bob Gibson

Scan was really good. I agree with Lemmings about the registration, which may have thrown you off about the scan quality. Looks like Josh Gibson to me, not Bob.

Sorry, I had a brain fart. I've been in a lot of pain all morning, not thinking straight.

As a Cardinal fan, I am just glad it does not look like Ernie Broglio
