like in cards you can look at a t206 or cracker jack and tell within 2 seconds if it's a fake...because you see them probably 100x more than some of the other obscure issues.
Sometimes you see an item (like the example here) that you just want to believe so bad that its real. I would love to know that a signed ticket stub from Babe Ruth's 700 home run game exists...
