I prefer my cards to have the same sides :).

Glad to see he clarified that his test run theory was wrong. I admire the integrity. Weird card though.

As a kid, I had a '65 Mantle #350 that would have met the "too fragile" test: It was in a toploader, totally waterlogged and still wet. If you tried to remove it, the card would have disintegrated. :o

The front of this Mantle card looks very fake to me. When you zoom into the picture there are no pixels. That is sign of a forgery.

Who knows? I distinctly remember a friend of mine having a 1953 Jackie Robinson that was glued to another one that had a whole punch through it. Why do kids do what they do to cards?
