Posted By: <b>Dan Lundrigan</b><p>I could use a little help with the back of the card from this scan it just doesn`t look right to me.It looks sort of grayish not the Tan color I am used to.I would like to purchase it but obviously I am not going to be interested if it is a reprint.Thanks in advance for any help! <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1129215325.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>Those horizontal lines are evidence that it was once stuck in a photo album and then removed.<br /><br />Perhaps this is why the back color is somewhat different, because they had to soak it or do something to remove it.

Posted By: <b>Dan Lundrigan</b><p>I thought it might have been glued in an album.I am going to contact the seller see if he can give me any more background on this.I`m still unsure if it`s the real deal though.Thank`s for your input!

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>From the scan the paper (front and lower) looks old. Also a lot of reprints don't have good clarity and this one does...Looks good to me, from the scan. Could definitely tell in person...good luck

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>I really think it's real.<br /><br />Why make a reprint and then mess up the back of it?<br /><br /><img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
