I had someone on another board do this exact same thing. He bought a really bad looking card. So far he is still thinking it's real. I am almost sure it's not. It is a totally tattered 1935 Ruth 4 in 1. His comment was why would anyone fake this terrible looking card? And we all know that answer, as Larry H says, MONEY. A little bit of fraud at a time can add up.
