Default N403 Yum Yum Welch Pitching

Sometimes opinions can differ. This currently resides in the Beckett 1 holder. It came from a bookseller who said it fell out of a book. I first sent it to SGC and was stunned when they said it was counterfeit. The seller said he would refund me and I said no, let's wait until Beckett can look at it. I thought it was good from the little bit I know. Beckett confirmed my suspicions. They said that under a microscope it is an albumen photo, with the telltale hairs showing, of a wood engraving just as it should be. They also compared it to another Yum Yum albeit that one was in a holder already. In hand I thought it was good when I first got it although the front printing is out of focus. BTW, there is only one other known card like this and it is in the Library of Congress. Thoughts?
