That card looks fake in my opinion. It's the printing that looks wrong. It looks like that was scanned and then printed on a computer printer. You could compare the dot pattern if you had it in hand. I guess you'd say the printing looks fuzzy. Look at the dot pattern of the shadow under the bill of his cap. Also the dark black lettering of New York Yankees looks narrower and less defined. Compare that version to the printing on this graded example.
