Romeo and Julieta Cuban Card Real or Not Part 2

[Jason19th]

As I am sure that you all remember there was a long thread about these cards about a month ago. I just picked up this amateur Romeo and Julieta. Very small investment so no real risk. With the card in hand I can say I am just not sure. It has a very high real photo gloss a lot like a fatima team card. Corners are very sharp and that actaully worries me. At the same time it would be a lot of work to fake a card of an unknown amatuer player (unless you did so to set up big ticket pro stars as real and then charge a lot for them) Just wanted to post some scans and see if there were any more thoughts on these cards

Never seen this set but it looks nice

At first blush it sort of looks homemade and the photo looks 2nd generation or worse? I understand it was a small risk relatively speaking but those are my initial thoughts from first glance. Hopefully others will know more and chime in...

Bilingual cards from the era are kind of a red flag.

Well no idea of authenticity but some research shows that there was a Liga Social and there was a Dependientes team. However, the Dependientes team was considered one of the lowest ranked amateur teams and was made up of members from the clerk's society, likely shop keepers.

The photo looks like a copy of a copy like Leon pointed out. Really hard to tell.

I will post extensively on these at some point after the National.
