Default Red Old Mill??

Am I colorblind? Bad Scans? Taking newbies for a ride?
This seller has at least 4 listings, a couple with bids already.

Reprint?? The front clarity isn't all that great, looks a little grainy IMO.

Johnny, I never thought otherwise, just bringing this bloodsucker (or unknowing innocent) into the light of day.

Mike,

Good spot. You are correct...this card is a fake.

Along with other things already mentioned, the lettering at the bottom is too close to the image.

Best Regards,

Eric

It's a reprint. Also note the players name/team on the front is printed in black ink. Real T206s have the name/team printed in brown ink. Complete reprint, not the next 'blue back Old Mill' sensation.

Correct me if I'm wrong here, is this the same seller that had some reprints up a while back?

I am giving myself a pay on the back for looking at this and realizing immediately that it's a fake. I am getting better and learning more about the hobby.

Good deal, my friend. Sadly, the last time I checked, at least a couple folks had put bids in on this trash.

It's one of the things that I enjoy doing, my friend. I remember being new at this hobby. Exposing trash listings is the least us old farts can do......
