Likely legit but description is BS, they would not have handed out samples with misprinted backs and missing color. I believe these kind of Bowman sheets came from Philly area junk/paper dealers, who bought paper by the pound from the carters back then. Philly seems to have a had a robust cottage industry in used paper and cardboard, old comics, etc., moreso than any other Northeast city from what I've read/seen.
