Fakes
Frankly the colors on most of them just don't look quite right. They are "off" from the originals. I am most familiar with the Mantles...and would be wary at first glance. However, some of the fakes are pretty well done.
One of the tell tale giveaways to a fake card that has been aged is almost always the brown coloring on the edges of the card that sometimes bleeds to the top of the card. I know this has been attributed to the compound that makes the cards looked 'aged" - which soaks in more on the edges than the top or bottom. Z Wheat

The Mantle clearly looks fake, what sticks out most is the borders are too wide.
