These were the most recognizable reprints to me and later a full set that came in box form. What you have looks 100% like a reprint to me. I worked in card shops from the '84-'92 and have seen alot of reprints but never a two sided T206 like you have. The stock appears thicker than I would expect so maybe they're maticulously adhered. |
I'm attaching three more images. Two show the mystery card from the side (card on the left) lined up next to an authentic T206 on the right - so you can see the thickness of the paper. You can also see it appears to be a solid piece of paper. However, looking closer, I think I can see a slight seperation, as if two cards together. But this corner (in my picture) is the only place that looks like this, the rest of the card is one solid piece. I think this is caused by wear at the corner, exposing the soft paper interior against the thicker gloss portraits. But I could be wrong - just scared to start tearing the card apart
A third image is comparing the two mystery cards from the front. You can see the gloss shine, and it does look like the lower trim is different, as if these were cut at different places.
Not trying to create noise, just additional data points.
