I am convinced by the above that the card is Josh Gibson not his son, and it seems to me that if it is his ONLY card, is as scarce as it seems, and is generally accepted by most people as a real not tribute card, then one must go with the hobby's verdict. The fact that some cards are post-career (33G Lajoie, Sport King Cobb, Leaf Ruth, 40PB Jackson) doesn't seem to matter in most people's eyes, and even if one makes a distinction I think in the special case of Gibson who obviously didn't play in the major leagues and had no mainstream cards, you have to make an exception for this singular gem.
