One reason to believe it genuine is I don't know anyone
who would stick their Pre-War baseball card collection
(including T206 & T205 Mathewson) to a wall for the sake
of a prank recreation. For a retro photo, they might put
the cards in old frames, display them raw on the table or
bookshelves, but not stick them to the wall. As they
don't appear to be in penny sleeves, the only way you
would get the cards to stick to the wall like that is
with tape, gum or glue-- obviously something someone
today is highly unlikely to do.
