Is this card the real deal or a reprint?

What do you think? Real or fake? The measurements are correct.

Would love to see in person to tell you.. Did it pass the obvious smell and dark light tests?

It looks good. But is it possible to take a picture with your phone and zoom it in so we can see the “dots” and then post that picture

Yes, I can do that when the cards is returned to me. A buyer on eBay is returning it because he thinks it looks too good to be authentic. I am certain it is the real thing, but thought it couldn’t hurt to ask the experts.

At first glance I thought real.....

The back appears to have some staining, which looks like the result of it probably having been glued into a scrapbook, and then soaked out of it. Former scrapbook cards can have some of the nicest borders, corners, and vibrant color, because they were protected from surface damage for decades.

To me it looks real, and real nice.

It looks good to these Old Man Eyeballs as well.
