The "ole" eraser Magee trick....ugh....
Has anyone seen this exact card? I was supposed to be looking at a collection in Vermont tomorrow and these photos were sent so my hopes are already dashed and my guard is up.
Magee looks clearly doctored to me. I also wanted to see if anyone was missing this exact card from their collection as this "collector" seems a bit shady tbh. Another beauty, an A&G in a screw down with a PSA label stuck to the top?!?!?! Peace, Mike PS I looked up the PSA cert # on the A&G screw down sticker and it does not exist! What a surprise!  thumbnail_IMG_0130.jpg thumbnail_IMG_0129.jpg Last edited by vthobby; 12-30-2019 at 01:55 PM.

The gift of the Magi?
You're walking into a situation that is almost certainly going to be bad. I would examine my motives for walking in at all. It is fairly obvious they are intentionally trying to cheat someone.

I just saw the pics and was hoping it would be a real collection but its obviously a trap or a bad seed so I'd like to try and find out more about the guy. Peace, Mike PS I'm going to pass actually. He wants me to drive an hour away to look at the stuff and its all fishy. Ugh!!! If anyone used to own this Magee let me know and I can report the guy to local police but they will not do anything if its a real card that has been erased. Which I think it clearly is. If its been stolen then we can do something however. Last edited by vthobby; 12-30-2019 at 02:00 PM.

The Ginter has the look of an artificially aged reprint based on the crazing lines that come from soaking the card in tea and then baking it. At least that's how I've heard they do that.

Well, even if it was the MAGI_E instead of MAGEE, the 'E' is also missing. So I'm not sure there would be much of a bump for it.

The cert number on the PSA label is no good.

That is the rare MAGI variation not to be confused with the more common MAGIE.
Oh, and I love the new PSA screw down slab!!!
