No, your memory is right Jim, and this is also on page 155 in the book "The Card". Edward's response to the claim was (according to "The Card"):

"That's more bull$#it",,,"He wouldn't have accused us of stealing his card if we were white".(race card?)

Also from "The Card", page 154....Cobb: "It's like we won the lottery and we can't cash the ticket".

That about sums up the persistent effort to turn the fake into the real thing. Believe me, if the card were real, they would've already hit "pay day"; collectors with deep pockets would've already offered them plenty of money for the card.
