The boarders are too white for the condition. If you look at the ripple at the top of the Eddie Collins card, you will see some kind of paper coating that doesn't exist on originals.

Edit: I disagree about being able to buy better reprints here. Those reprints are just as ugly. (I'll admit the '33 Gehrig scared me a little, the rest are trash)
