Posted By: <b>Frank H Wakefield II</b><p>The print of the caption looks like reprint type, not original; the color of the face contrasting with the red background doesn't look correct, face should be more pastel looking.

Posted By: <b>Steve Dawson</b><p>The easiest way to tell, is that on real Cracker Jacks, the border and the player's uniform are the same color...there is no difference in the shading.

Posted By: <b>Dylan</b><p>well i think all you need to do is look at a few real Cracker Jacks and the reasons become apparent. If you are having trouble recognizing reprints stick to graded cards from PSA, SGC until you look at the real stuff enough to be comfortable buying raw.

Posted By: <b>Steve f</b><p>This Canadian seller, 'mesanine...' is a long-time scammer. He beat me once using his other ID.
