Posted By: <b>peter ullman</b><p>scan's a bit small...but suspicious enough. If they're telling you it's a reprint...I'd believe them!

Posted By: <b>peter ullman</b><p>i'd guess a high resolution scan would make this card...an obvious reprint to the trained eye...it looks grainy!

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Bernie, as the others said the scan is too small to know for sure. However, the borders are way too short regardless of whether the card is real or not.

Posted By: <b>bernie</b><p>so, because the borders are too short ... it's at least trimmed ?

Posted By: <b>Steve F</b><p>Agreeing with the others. Text is clearly not brown, L eye shows no white and the finger shadows are too dark. <br><br>Yes Bernie, Damn good looking counterfeit. Sadly, this one will be back and sell as an original some day.

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>Yes, it is trimmed at least. Probably a reprint as well. I agree with what other say; if it is being sold as a reprint, believe it.<br>JimB
