I'm a little skeptical about this one. Blurry photo, goofy description that just quotes from the card, somewhat low feedback, VERY low starting price. Anyone else a little suspicious on this one? I e-mailed him for clearer and larger scans - let's see how he responds...

Interestingly, this guy revised his description. It originally said the card was being sold as a reprint, if memory serves...

is what it is...

I believe Scott's original post was fairly dripping with sarcasm.

You don't know how sorry I am I can't post an original for contrast!

First, when a card this rare is offered on ebay with a fuzzy scan, I always look to see what else the seller is offering. In this case, a reprint of a t206 proof strip with Honus Wagner....warning lights start flashing.

Perhaps it's just me, but, in an auction, I like the scan to show at least 70 percent of the card.

I wanna see David Wells and Don Zimmer in garters.

Jay

I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.
