Default does anyone know if this is real

Posted By: Chris Counts

There are a lot of four-in-one exhibits floating around that feature players from various eras. It is my understanding these were printed in the 1980s by someone other than Exhibit Supply Co. I believe the real four-in-ones (somebody correct me if I'm wrong) were issued from 1929 to 1938 and only feature contemporary players ...

Regarding these "modern" 4-in-ones, They are easily distinguished by borders that are too wide, photos without borders and players that never played together (Jesse Haines and Stan Musial, for instance) ...

I noticed there's one on eBay right now with bids that indicate more than one collector believes they are vintage ...
