What i am collecting

[nsaddict]

Thanks for sharing and I hope I'm wrong but I suspect your Goudey Ruth and Aaron rookie are reprints...do you recall where you got them and how much you paid?

I am concerned with the Ruth also since the colors seem to be faded, and it looks like his fingers "may" have been cropped. Hard to see w/ the scan, of course. Here is a thread with help on determining if these cards are genuine or fake: Link

I am only 98.9% sure the Ruth Goudey is fake. There is that 1.1% chance the scan is so poor it makes it look like that. I think the Aaron is the same way but I am not quite as sure....

ok.

You can tell the Ruth was soaked to make it look older by the color and dispersal of the fibers on the edges and corners. Definitely fake.

No opinion on the Aaron, but the Evers is a presumed trim based on the questionable grader -- top left corner is more than suspicious...

ruth's face is way too dark, it's a reprint (one of those "racoons" fakes). how is the light switch in the background have better focus than the card you're taking a pic of?
