They both look good to me. Not looking with a loop it may be tough but they both seem legit from the scans.

Default Here you go

Top is Love of the Game
Bottom "other"

I tried to blown them up and sharpen them as they are different sizes and thus get pixelated as you enlarge them but I think you can clearly see there are different things going on with the fonts. I've been a graphic designer for over 20 years and see a big difference when I look at them. Just my 2 cents.

You can see the shape of the letters is different especially in the "P" as well as the spacing issues. Sorry for the poor quality.

the ink bleeds. its never going to be perfect and crisp and identical.

that doesn't mean its altered. you just opened the door for all of the skeptics and the bashers.

i hope you all welcome another probstien thread because that is what this will become.

For the record...it doesn't look right to me...if I were looking for a magie error...I wouldn't touch it.

The ink bleeds? Really?

The N looks weird too?!!
Honestly...it looks like the whole caption was "erased" and re-added...Every single letter doesn't look right if u look at Brads comparison.

Wake up people!

And I mean this in the most positive...optimistic way!!!!

yes, the ink bleeds. the lettering in a delicate name is very open to looking different because of tiny lines, the amount of ink laid on it as it flies through the printing press.

do you think that if the 'erased it' and added it back so well on all of the other letters, they would botch only 2 of the letters? why wouldn't they just make all of the letters perfect?

and then that it would be completely missed by the graders on top of that?

someone that is so good, that they made everything else perfect, totally messed up 2 of them so badly that there are tons of people saying how bad it is?

not everything that has a minor issue with it is a conspiracy.

Kevin...if you can't look at brads comparison and can't see that every single letter is different...you are blind! You show me any 2 t206 captions close up...and the print will look the same.

This isn't even close!

This is a BIG problem...you'll see!

There's nothing to lose since the seller has stated that this item can be returned for a refund.
