Default Uh oh...now I have to be concerned about fake wrappers too?

Have you all seen this ebay seller's wrapper reprints?

https://www.ebay.com/sch/kanicol76/m...p2047675.l2562

First off, his listings are very clearly labeled in the title that these are REPRINT wrappers. I don't think there is anything wrong with him making/selling these as he is not trying to deceive.

However, I AM concerned about people with bad intentions buying them and then trying to pass them off as real. I took a real close look at the two wrappers I am most familiar with (1935 Goudey and 1952 Bowman) and I can't see anything that tips me off that these aren't real. Maybe they FEEL different in hand, but visually they are spot on.

Thoughts?
