Posted By: <b>dennis</b><p>both are legit. also, if you see a baker with same image but a yellow sky it's a w514. on many strip card issues card stock and colors could vary. sometimes even the images are reversed

Posted By: <b>Ed Hans</b><p>Both are real. The apparent differences are caused by the way the images were produced. I used a scanner, while Dan's is a digital photograph. I think you should bid on both so you can compare them side by side. (Insert smiley here).

Posted By: <b>Michael Flaherty</b><p>There are also color variations within the W551 set based on how much ink was used so they won't all look the same.<br /><br /><img src="http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o320/ZodiacMindwarp/W551/Sisler.jpg"> <img src="http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o320/ZodiacMindwarp/W551/sisler48.jpg">
