Lelands has been around for a long time and they should no better. Their lack of response to your great outing coupled with your outstanding knowledge of the T206 set may make things very uncomfortable for them. I hope so. Of course, Doyle Nat'l should be the 523rd card.
Ted, do you remember when Alan Rosen sold Keith Olberman a Dole that had been badly altered but graded by a forerunner SGC. There was such a stink. You can imagine Keith and Alan going at each other. I never found out how it was all settled.

Hi John
That occurred 30+ years ago, so let me see what I can recall: After some serious debate, Rosen took back the fake Doyle card. Olberman eventually acquired an authentic one.
About that same time 30+ years ago, Joe Pelaez also purchased a fake Doyle card. He was livid when he was made aware of this. And this resulted in tracking down the culprit,
who was quite professionally adding the "Nat'L" lettering on the captions of regular Joe Doyle cards.
However, as good as he was with his "artwork", he made a subtle minor mistake by raising the
' above the top line of the lettering of
Nat'L.....which exposed it being a FAKE.
Joe eventually acquired an authentic Doyle from Lipset.
