I don't think that one is real. I mean, it is a real reproduction. But not a real, vintage, original 1951 Bowman Mantle.

Agreed. Mantle's skin color is off and all the aging on the back looks artificial.

Default somewhere

likely in the archive (sorry Bruce :-)) - there is thread containing a specific printing "tell" on fake '51 Mantles....... Perhaps a search would yield fruit.

edited to add: In this case however - such diligence might be overkill as there appear to be many flags.

At least he has it listed as a reprint in the title.

Reprints don't screw people. People screw people.

Not is you are like me and wanted the reprint because you will never own a real one and wanted one in the same condition as the rest of your beater cards.
