I bought a fake for the first time in my lifetime in the hobby. It was $1.99 on eBay for my set and I didn't really look carefully at all, so it's 100% my fault. Gave it a glance, saw it was intact and $1.99, and bought it. Card is on thinner stock, the image has the characteristics of a cheap copy with some loss of detail, and the back is black instead of blue. Pretty clearly a copy.
I did not realize there were fake low grade common 1950 Remars at all even. Funny thing is the card originally never arrived, and I ignored it because it ain't worth it for $1.99 and I consider .1% of packages or so lost to just be part of the cost of doing a hobby. The post service returned it to the seller, who sent me a note and we had a nice chat about the joys of the hobby and how he pulled Remar's out of the bread packages as a young boy but his grandkids don't have any interest in cards before he mailed it again.
I suspect this was not one of those cards he pulled...
Getting a laugh when I opened the envelope was worth the $2. Weird card to make a copy of. Anyone got a cheap Remar Galan to sell to a moronic buyer?
