Need Help on '47-'66 Mantle Exhibit Card
 
Have has this card in my collection a long time and for the life of me, can't remember how I obtained....

I am thinking this is a reprint, but just not quite sure? Any help would be great appreciated - thanks in advance!

Do yo have any other exhibits to compare to?

It looks like the back is gray in color, which would indicate that it is a reprint, but comparing to a sepia back of another exhibits card would help determine that.

Hi - thanks for posting - it's actually the only Exhibit I have in the collection...

Can't tell a lot from that photo. I suggest a flat scan, or if that is not possible, take a couple of photos outside in natural light.

Is the back a creamy color or gray? If creamy it would be original...

Adam is the expert, but even though the back doesn't look like the gray cardboard fakes, I don't like the look of the stock. Also, it may be the photo but the Made In USA in the lower right looks really fuzzy which would be sign of a photographic reproduction as well. Can't be 100% but I'm not a fan.

Mantle Exhibit
 
Definitely a reprint, early 1980’s.

Looks like a repop to me.

Yeah, I don’t think more pics are needed - thanks for everyone’s help! Jim
