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

Posted By: Anonymous

ok i just checked out leon's e94 types. each banner pretty much have different fonts, the only thing that leon's "oh you fan" have in common with the others might be the ink used. but since it's a 1/1, who's to say leon isn't the fake while this new discovery is real? this is all hypothetical of course...if you put leon's 10 along with the new "oh you fan", that might not even be the first one that jumps out at you as being fake.



i guess in the end i still can't really decide if it's real or fake, and that's why i've shied away from these. i hope leon doesn't mind me putting his 10 scan here for comparison purposes(just delete it if it's inappropriate leon).



and robert...if someone has a little hobby knowledge, contact the right people (dr cycleback/joe d. about ink and printing) a stamp can be duplicated within a year that you can't really tell the difference. i truly believe that.



to add: and these are fairly complicated stamps to me, think of all the easier stamps that can be made, niagaras d355s, e107 breisch co. stamps.
