That card does not even look close to being right. One of the worst cases of sunburn I have ever seen on Mickey.

I sent the seller an email requesting better scans, preferably against a dark background. It doesn't look right to me either.

Not a PSA expert by far, but doesn't the PSA font and spacing look off on the flip also?

From the scan it looks more fake than a 3 dollar bill.

The seller informed me that there were no cracks in the holder and that he'd post a picture against a dark background so I could tell. The coloring definitely looks off and I am not certain about the corner wear on this one....

Just because the other cards look okay doesn't mean this one is.
