except for the fact that gloss and thickness of stock is often emphasized on the fakes.The original stock especially on the 14's is not only very thin but rarely white! They are commonly a yellow/white "H" color,as opposed to the bleached George Hober models I purchased six years ago which were "F" color=pure white and caramel free.This is not consistant with most of the 14's!( Except the killer one above and a bunch of graded ones I may post here to compete with that beautiful puppy above!)Remember the 14's came in boxes and the 15's came in both boxes and complete sets so there are many more 15's rolling around as well.Most reproductions are thicker and glossier as mentioned above....this of course is to maintain a high grade image example of an authentic one. lastly,watch "Field of Dreams" where they show the alleged Cracker jack cards at the very begining of the movie!! here is a quiz!!! What are the three mistakes in the card photos they flash???
