[QUOTE=JollyElm;1892539]Dude, I don't know you from a hole in the wall, but you have to see how your quote (above) now puts you in a very suspicious light. If you got ripped off by a scammer for $200 and you're just going to chalk it up to experience and do nothing about it, I imagine every single one of us is wondering if the 'fake' has been, in fact, yours all along and you posted the pics here to see if it was good enough to fool people. You can just throw $200 away?? This type of thing happens on the autograph side, where (probable) forgers will ask for opinions on big name signatures they are "thinking of buying" for the sole intent of seeing if their handiwork is getting good enough to trick the experts on the board. Again, to be clear, I don't know you, so I may be way off base, but I guarantee this is what most people are thinking at the moment.[/QUOTE
I'm glad you guys got me figured out. I'm new to the old card hobby and naively figured this place would be a good place for help with a card I just bought and honestly had reservations buying in the first place due to price. I bought the card in an antique store from a guy that sells civil war weapons and stuff. He only had a couple cards and none of those. Thanks for a great welcome to this forum.
