Posted By: <b>Jeff Prizner</b><p>make sure it has an "orange peel effect" texture on the front, look at the back for natural toning (not too white or artifically aged), look for the Mike Wheat reprint "sun marks" on the back at the bottom two corners or paper loss where they should be, card should measure 5 ¾ x 8".
