Hasn't this card been touched up?

The Downey in the same auction has the same evidence of flaking. Doubt anyone rebacked the Downey!

Not giving an opinion on the propriety of this one, but the front will often chip like that on beat up corners, exposing the white cardboard underneath.

Its ok to discuss anything about pre-war cards on this board. Most, but not all, would prefer to discus ebay auctions after they are ended. Cards in major auctions are talked about anytime....open auction, closed auction......any auction house, anywhere... It's all ok. "Announcing" auctions on the front page is normally reserved for our advertisers. There is a place on the BST to announce auctions otherwise. Hope that helps explain it.

I had some comments, but upon further thought take them back.

I revert to the default No Comment.
