Greg,

Just my two cents, but I would not be surprised if a few reprints passed grading. Do I have concrete evidence? No. Is it possible a fake could pass? Yes.

I know it is Ruth, but outside of that, I have never understood the draw of this set. I know it's kind of like going to Nepal and wondering what the attraction was outside of Mt Everest.
