davidcyclebackI had a Ty Cobb and the paper was similar to many magazine suppliments-- thin, white coated and smooth/semi-glossy. Much like modern glossy magazine paper. Not matte like newspaper.
I hadn't heard of reprints of the Baseball Magazine premiums, other than many were issued by the magazine over a number of years. Without seeing it is person, my guess is the one you bought is genuine.
