Jason: I really appreciate your feedback and took note of your comments. I was not “trying to convince myself it was real”. I was however trying to protect the money I spent on the card. I have 55 of the 100 cards in the 1953 Parkhurst Set signed. I have been working on this set for 23 years and have never seen the Horton. I took a calculated risk on the card and figured I would have to spend a couple hundred bucks on authentication fees. I originally posted it here and had 2 comments on its authenticity. You thought it was not legit and one other poster thought it might be good. I didn’t want it part of my signed set w/o one of the accepted authentication services giving it the thumbs up. I know the authenticators are not the end all be all and it’s only one persons opinion. Just a guy here trying to protect his initial investment in the card. Thanks.
Mike Reid
