He is deceased but was living past the time of the May 1999 meeting at the Robert Morris show with the dealer.

So you're saying the subject never came up between you and your uncle? If you said your uncle was a printer and thought the cards were a fraud, that at least would be one other opinion. But I don't think you are saying that.

I think you are saying that the cards could be a fraud because a printer could come up with paper to use to make fake cards. Actually, I think you are saying the cards are a fraud because it is possible to access paper to commit a fraud. I think by that logic, every card that exists could be a fraud.

I have a ten dollar bill in my wallet. It is possible for someone to make counterfeit ten dollars bills. That does not mean my ten dollar bill is counterfeit.

I am also not clear what distinguishes your 1921 Standard Biscuit Davenport as being real and the LOTG Herpolsheimer's Davenport as being fake. By your logic, they both could be fake.

[I am not sure why I keep trying to have a logical discussion when I think Brian is just messing with us at this point.]
