That's the first mention of Fritsch reprint I've seen in this thread. If you're referring to Larry Fritsch Cards (from whom I've bought), whyever would they have produced a copy of a 100+ year old card anyway?

Fritsch reprints were mentioned in the OP.

Larry Fritsch was the king of reprints. It's amazing that a regular customer wouldn't know this.

There was nothing nefarious about it, they were sold and usually clearly marked Reprint. Between he and Larry Gelman of Card Collectors Company they produced nice quality reprints largely of sets most collectors couldn't afford.
