Here is the one I had, if its a fake its the most convincing fake of anything IVe ever seen!!!!, with mildew, and very old glue, etc.
and the image is Not Copied BTW, so get past that....

Why would the guy who faked these COMPLETELY redraw the whole design??? Everything about the design is different between the green and white side boxes, the placement of the "Babe Ruth" the "9", the background of the Ruth image, the removal of "The Champion Nine", the removal of the line around the edge, etc. Makes no sense to redraw the whole thing when you could just copy it from the original.

Mine wouldnt fit on the scanner so I dont have the size info, but there was size printing in blue ink on the white edge too.

Im saying its REAL, and just a later version. It would be cheaper to just slap these stickers on a cheap white box, than to print the whole thing up on the box itself, sides and all.
I owned mine for at least 10 years before I sold it a couple years back.
