Hi everyone,
I was looking at lot #619 in Legendary's current auction (Babe Ruth Fro-Joy complete uncut sheet + 2 cards) and noticed something on the back of the sheet. I know these Fro-Joy's have been heavily reprinted but I thought one way to tell a real card/sheet from a fake was the boxes on the back of the sheet that surround the text of each card should be complete not broken at the corners of each box. From the scan at Legendary's site, it looks like the boxes are broken at the corners. Any thoughts? Thanks.
Howard

It's hard to tell as the scan are small, but they look as if they could okay to me. To me, it looks as if the lines of the boxes might connect. As I recall, the line breaks on the reprints were pretty large.

I would assume Legendary knows what they are doing as far as these cards go.

I'm not sure, but I think the sheet would fit into Beckett's big holder, and I know they will grade Fro Joys.

Yeah...it's the T206 Wagner they have a hard time with.
