Most of the Helmar cards I see do not have a year on them: http://cgi.ebay.com/R319-Helmar-BIG-...ht_1153wt_1131

There is no way that every Helmar card being sold is not being bidded on by someone who thinks that it is a prewar printed item. I also like them and envy the skills the creator has but I feel that ageing them to look like they are old is misleading. You have to ask yourself if they sold them in mint condition and put 2011 on the back would they reach the dollar amounts that they are selling for? I say no.
