Thanks Frank,
I'm attempting to authenticate this third party anyway but will pick one up for any other use.
The card is authentic. I'm not as knowledgeable as most people here, and I'm aware of that. I've received a few counterfeit Ruth cards in the past and put them on this forum for everyone to confirm so I could get my money back. I never questioned the authenticity of this card like the other few, and still didn't question the authenticity when Beckett returned it ? authenticity/altered.
I don't recall seeing any Goudey Premium counterfeits, any Butterfinger counterfeits, any Fro Joy Premium counterfeits, etc. The bigger it is; the less valuable it is. And I would guess the bigger it is; the harder it is to counterfeit.
I'll do whatever y'all think needs to be done. I appreciate your time.

It's old cardboard.
On 2-4-2011, I used a black light and photographed the Fro Joy Premium with a counterfeit Fro Joy card that I mentioned in another thread on top of the premium.
