1952 Topps Mantle

What do you all think of this Mantle? Looks awfully fake to me. Looks to have the reprint gloss, creases look manufactured, and the perfect centering is obviously rare. I contacted the seller though and he is adamant that it's real.

It's a horrible fake. Also, you might have better luck posting this in the Post War section - this is the BST.

But it's been in his family for a very long time AND he guarantees it to be 100 percent authentic. Given that, and his 100% positive feedback

, how can anyone go wrong?
