1933 Goudey Gehrig #92....Real or fake?

[paulgrubor]

Hi, I haven't handled these Goudey's for at least 10 years so I'm asking for your help. A friend of mine wants me to list the card on Ebay and I told him that I'm not sure if it's real. In my opinion the back looks like it has been aged and the front doesn't look right...What do you guys/gals think?

For the same reasons you provided, they're fake. :(

[CardTarget]

Look on the back between "Goudey Gum Co." and "Boston". That's where the word "reprint" was before somebody scratched it off (note the lighter area). That's the best giveaway of all.

Reprint was erased out between Goudey Gum Co. and Boston on the back of the card.

OMG...How obvious..Thanks a bunch for all your help. My main focus has been 68 through 73 psa graded cards. I'll have to sharpen my skills on the true vintage cards...

Thanks,

Paul

Other ways to tell it is fake:

The hat is cropped at the top. There should be space between the hat and the border.

The bat should extend beyond the blue border slightly.
