E, DanielRead again what David has written.
So please explain, through all your bluster, exactly what you are claiming.
As I remember from the Heitman post, all he suggests (rather vaguely) was that mocking up copies of these cards happened by a few good buddies, who left plenty of clues of their deception because they weren't really out to fool people.
I do not remember him saying they were perfect, or that no one but the pope could discern authentic from fake.
Are you suggesting Joe has examples he could share, or has enough personal experience with authentic wagners and the reprints that he will confirm they are indistinguishable?
And while you may have great experience with cards in the hobby, until you produce an example of this 50's reprint with miraculous powers of convincing all who see it, I will very comfortably say you are full of hot wind.
They may exist, but line them up alongside an authentic SC wagner and lets see who's fooled. I'd take my chances of picking out the one authentic card in a line up of ten fakes.
In the spirit of recent wagers you can have my E103 Wagner If I'm wrong.
Game on.
Daniel
