Another Suspect T201 on the Bay
Back Damage from being removed from the pack? Hmmmm!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1911-T201-Jo...item4182516d10 |
The title says "slabbed-graded 30-Good-SGC", but obviously not slabbed, graded, or having anything to do with SGC.

He obviously just stole the title from this auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1911-T201-Jo...item20e18674fc |
Notice the paper loss is conveniently at the spot where the word "reprint" should be & it looks like the card was aged a bit, possibly using the tea bag trick.
Here is a reprint (taken from eBay) that you can see the backside. http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTE0NlgxNj...TjQBj/$_57.JPG |
I sent him a message this morning stating just that. I didn't spell it out here but, yes, it is artificially aged and the paper loss eliminated the Reprint Identifier.

Probably a Reprint

Another comparison points this card to a reprint. Notice the curly image in the bottom right corner, the reprints all have this smudged top right curl. Also, on all reprints I have seen the ink appears thicker compared to originals.
|
The seller still hasn't taken down the listing but there are no bids, as yet.

Couple of additional artifacts which match the Reprint.
|
And the final straw ..... the seller is from Ohio.
|
Thanks for the laugh (Michigan Man).
