Ask me why I check the worn edges? I got burned once on a nice looking '51 Bowman Mantle. Looked perfect even down to the wax stains on the reverse. Didn't check the paper stock underneath the first layer....

Zach - Just curious: I assume you mean the grayish colored cardstock under the white overlay that is visible in the corners due to heavy wear? That makes sense, but did the bogus '51 Mantle show something else?
