Posted By: <b>pete in MN</b><p>I bought a supposed Froy Joy Uncut sheet while in college about 14 years ago. I realize that the majority of sheets out there are fake, but how can I tell. It's not colored, the whole sheet is like caramel in color with some whitish blotching...I wish I had a scanner. The type looks good, but the pictures seem a little fuzzy. Are the photos typically not that sharp? Just kinda curious!<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Marc S.</b><p>it may be tough to tell. I don't believe any of the major grading companies currently grades Fro-Joys because of the ambiguous nature of the reprints vis a vis authentic examples. Obviously a scan would help - but 99.9% of the black and white Fro-Joys out there are fake - and your item will not realize any value unless you can get a major auction house (for example) to vouch to its authenticity. <br /><br />Previously, Runscott has posted a picture of one of his authentic examples:<br /><br /><img src="http://runscott.homestead.com/files/fjruth.jpg">
