Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>I'd need a bigger scan, but it does look like it has the wet sheet ransfer that is common to real Goudeys and that you never see on a fake. If you post a larger, higher rez scan, that would be great, or email it to sabrjay@yahoo.com I'll be more than happy to let you know.<br /><br />If the card is real, you got a great deal.<br /><br />Jay<br><br>My place is full of valuable, worthless junk.

Posted By: <b>cmoking</b><p>I was able to see a large front image of the card. Click on the small Front and on the right you'll see no picture but an X. But Click on "View Full-Size image on the bottom right, and you'll see a nice big image of the card. <br /><br />I don't see anything different about it compared to the Red Ruths I have. But I wouldn't be able to tell if it was a 70s fake or not - what are the characteristics of those reprints?<br /><br />From the scans, I see nothing unusual - but I don't know if I could spot a fake (by scan) if I saw one.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>It's impossible to authenticate a card from a picture, as you have to see it in person. However, I don't see anyting glaringly wrong with the card in your picture-- and most Goudey Ruth fakes have something glaringly wrong with them and that can be seen in an online picture.<br /><br />You should send it into PSA. If officially graded, it's value would rise, and any reputable seller would give a refund if PSA said it was fake.
