1947 Tip Top Bread
 
I know there were reprints in 1991. My question is are there any other reprint sets out there that don't have "reprint" on the backs? Or are there counterfeits for this set? TIA

Are these real or counterfeit? I'm leaning towards good.

Reprints
 
I have seen other reprints out there that are not from the 1991 set which also don't say "reprint" on them so you have to be careful.

Usually you can tell by handling the cards. The paper stock feels thinner and just "off".

As far as the card you posted, it is kind of hard to tell given the size of the photos and that they are in binder pages, but they seem to be ok at first glance.


I am trying to put the set together and it is a beast...

In hand it is very easy to tell. The reprints have a second-generation look to them. I can't say from your scans.
