Dan,

The same reason "libertyforall" is able to thrive selling paper scraps -- many collectors just don't know any better or foolishly believe they can get something of great value for almost nothing.

Libertyforall at least states exactly what his trash is. Cut out with other junk on back. These are doctored reprints to look old and being sold as real. I would think the negatives would have hit by now. Dan.

that is perhaps the worst attempt to age a card i have seen, i burst out laughing when the pic appeared, are those tire marks on the card? i understand mike's comment about some people not knowing better, but if anyone had ever seen a real 38 goudey before, they are not snow white and the do not have glossy fronts that crack when creased.

my main advice to anyone stupid enough to bid on such is to go learn what your buying 1st! i don't know a thing about impressionist painting and i would NEVER buy anything without doing major homework. i do know coins and stamps among other items and feel comfortable in those areas.

point is learn to walk before you run.

It looks like it was run over by a subway. There is so much damage that it is difficult to even see the card. Even if it were real, would anybody want a card in this condition? This would be a PSA minus one.

I don't understand this..what's the point in making a reprint look THAT bad. I am a fan of low grade hofers but even if that card was real I wouldn't take it if you gave it to me.
