If it was reprinted or not but if you have the card you should be able to run your finger over it and have a real good idea if it "feels" like it's 75 years old. Also you can hold it in your hand, flat, and see if the gloss is somewhat uneven. It should be if it's real. If you have a 1920's caramel card it should have the same type of gloss as it does....You can also look at it under magnification and see if there are dots in the white borders...a sure sign it's a reprint....hope this helps a little....take care
