Matt, those don't have the typical gap around the frame. How can you tell they're fake (other than from the description)?

They did a nice job cut n pasting images of real cards, including the text, onto white stock. Unfortunately, the cut on the Hughie went through the "90" and the "s" in Americans.

Also, the Rixey shows a darker pasted area that shows around the text. There are several other flaws in the technique. See em?

Good work Matt.

Excellent point guys. Why do you think people still buy these cards, when the seller is essentially saying "These are likely to be reprints."? Do you think the buyers are thinking that they will hit it big? After all, if they were originals, why wouldn't the seller get them authenticated with PSA or SGC and sell them for what they would cost if they were authentic?

Here is an example. Who buys these cards???
