Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>That looked like wear to me. The card is a disaster. And did you notice the $4500 label on it? I might pay $45 in that condition (perhaps a bit more).

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>Those reprints have been around for a few years now, like Dan said the top right corner has tape damage, at least the original this reprint card was made from had tape damage (corner red missing). Used to see these Ruths alot on eBay a few years back, but not as much lately.
