Posted By: <b>Kevin Struss</b><p>I am being offered some two card panels of these cards. I assume that someone cut up the original 10 card strip. The seller is an an out of town antique shop. They do not have a scanner.<br><br>Are there fake W551's out there? If so, are they individuals or in panel/strip form?<br><br>Any help or photos of what to look for would be appreciated.<br><br>Kevin

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Steve is correct. There are in fact quite a few fakes out there. I don't have any scans to show though...
