Identifying these cards as reprints was straightforeward. Under the 100x microscope, the printing was clearly not vintage and, under a blacklight, the card stock was shown to be modern. The cards has a bit of a funky cut, but that was neither here nor there as far as dating them. I put Leon's Babe Ruth Candy card under the same microscope, and the printing was vintage. At the time I wasn't sure why Leon sent me the extra card (I was expecting his Fro Joy and Leon hadn't yet returned my email), but I figured I might look at it while I was at it.
