lol... the light test
I do believe I inadvertently created this "light test" the seller speaks of. About 10 years ago when the scammers were raking on eBay, I ran this online manual dedicated to helping people avoid being swindled on a '52 Mantle (which apparently wound up being well-read within the hobby). I figured out by holding a flashlight directly to the surface of a '52 Topps card that no light will penetrate the card. The best of the bogus cards were printed on stock that let the light go right through it. So, now it appears there is this thing called a "light test" that every '52 Mantle wanna-be fraudster has to pass.
