Dr.Koos....Look at the bottom right hand corner in the portraiture. That erasure, half obliterating the tree, is where the vertically positioned word,"REPRINT" used to be.
I also see MANY inconsistancies on the other vintage cards that lead me to believe that they are all "artificially aged" (tea, coffee, nicotine, dirt, random filth, unspecified stains, urine, etc.) REPRINTS.
Several, I wasn't absolutely sure about, but the mere presence of the erasure on the Mantle, just at the perfect spot to obliterate the "reprint" designation (what a coincidence!) points to an overwhelming thumbs down on this seller.
