Jay MillerDavid---The large lot of restored K-Bats was purchased by a West Coast collector who still has them.
Leon---I would purchase rebacked Old Judge or K-Bats if I needed the card but would hope to get an original copy at a later date. As to other issues I would, like you, avoid restored cards. When you start down this path you open up the issue of how much restoration is OK. Taken to the illogical extreme,isn't a reprint is a 100% restored card with a new back.
