If someone would post a picture of a reprint and a genuine one, it would be much easier to point out the differences. An easy difference is that the ink on reprints are usually black. In genuine ones they are brown. Also, the name and team on both are in differnet script. The genuines also have a distinct border around the picture border which separates them from the white border. Also, the colors are much more vibrant on a real one. Not to mention, the dot patterns under a magnifying glass or loupe. It's relatively easy once you see them side by side. I hope that helps!
