Need Help Identifying Frankie Frisch Card
 
http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/y...s3232062a.jpeg

I just won it at auction. There was no indication as to the size of the card, although by the looks of it I would assume it is similar in size to a T206. Am trying to get info on whether the back is blank or not. The auction house did not specify nor did they scan the back, so I am under the assumption that it is blank backed, but have asked for details. I purchased it more for the autograph than anything else. Any help would be appreciated!

I'm no expert, but it looks like a portion of a "4-on-1" exhibit card, although the writing would be far bigger. I imagine this is much larger than t206 size given the small writing necessary to write all that.

Looking forward to the answer...

1977 Jim Rowe Exhibit. Looks to have artificial age... I'd check the sig.

While it looks like it's cut from a 1930s-era 4-in-1 Exhibit, my guess is that it's cut from a 1970s fantasy "4-in-1." The font's not right. I believe they came out in 1977 and were produced by Jim Rowe. He did use this image for Frisch, and the font matches. If that's the case, Frisch had already died, which makes the signature's authenticity impossible ...
