Irrelevant to whether or not I think they are fakes, if the seller doesn't know if they're originals and won't take them out of the frames, they're auctions not worthy of bids. I wouldn't bid without being shown the backs of the photos. I like where the seller says "If these don't sell, I'll remove them from the frames to see if they're real." Doesn't exactly instill confidence in the product.

It's hard to tell if the seller is ignorant or BSing (He says he thinks Ty Cobb might be in the photo and he think's it might be the guy to the left of the manager?), but it doesn't matter if you don't bid.

P.s. If you look up close at some of the Cobb images it appears you can see the cross hatch printing pattern which wouldn't appear on a real photo. I didn't look at the other photo.
