Ted ZanidakisOccasionally, these T206 FAKES are listed on ebay; and, in many instances veteran sellers are selling
them as "authentic". In some cases, the OLD MILL back is Red; and, in others it is Blue....such as the
Lundgren I have depicted here.
What is really interesting with most of these, is that they usually look "a-ged" and quite worn.....as if
this will camouflage their phoniness. I doubt if any Net54er's would be duped in to thinking these are
genuine T206's.....but, I'm sure that there are others that would be.... especially, if the starting bids
are low enough to entice.
Here are the links to two current ebay examples....a Matty (white cap) and a Green Cobb.
