Yeah, I agree on all counts.

I't interesting for sure. If a card has its corners 'aged' manually over a span of minutes, even if it duplicates almost exactly what occurred on the other corners over a period of 100 years, it's tough to accept.

Is this any different from hand-cutting a Joe Jackson strip card in 2011, vs a kid cutting it out 100 years ago?

Malicious intent seems to be the key here.
