Default MRholdings on our BST ....Caveat Emptor!!

Posted By: Shawn

I am going to go out on a limb here... Notice the font on the ad I posted above, "The George Close Co." appears to be the same as is on the card in question. I have looked at other cards today with the stamp on the back and have not seen one that has the same font as is in the ad or on the back of MRs card. I am talking about the "George Close" portion of the stamp only. It is my belief that if someone were to make a fake, they would use something similar to the "known" stamps. The odds of creating a stamp with the exact font as is on the ad above would seem to be nil. I am going to guess that the stamp on the card in question is an earlier version, simply based on the fact the the ad is older than the e94s.



Whats your thoughts?
