Bob and Leon, et al
Back in 1982, the Rose rookie counterfeit was pretty darn good. And, if it wasn't for the stupidity of the counterfeiter trying to dump a large number of them
at one BB card show in California, these cards would not have been detected as soon as they were.
Hey guys,
Which one of these Rose rookie cards is a fake ?
