Authentic cards are on light gray/tan stock (you might describe as sepia toned) and show some edge discoloration from exposure to sunlight and handling.

Here are the backs of the first 29 cards posted above. The two in the upper right corner that are lighter than the others are James Cagney and Richard Burton. Among the remaining backs of scanned cards are four others that are whiter than the others. The remainder are back-to-back in four pocket plastic pages. If you or anyone else are interested in working a deal, I will gladly scan the rest of them in the same manner. Just let me know. Thanks.
