A new guy's first (and only) post is relating a fanciful story that plays upon everyone's dream of discovering a hugely valuable T206 Wagner or a 1952 Topps Mantle hidden somewhere. The use of his 'wife' is to basically say, "Look, I'm just a regular guy, everybody. You can trust me."
Since it is obviously a fake/reprint/whatever, why in high hell would someone keep it hidden away by taping it to the underside of a drawer??? Huh?????
Oy vey.

Or maybe he's hoping that we'll share all the reasons why it's obviously fake so that he can come up with a better fake the next time around?
