HELP!!! - E95 Philadelphia Caramel Cobb Variation?

[ullmandds]

I saw 2 of these cards at the 95 national...and have seen a few more since...some on this board...maybe 1 or 2 in major auctions.

I also have an old paperback book depicting this card...but my book is packed away in a box somewhere.

I certainly understand your desire to find out more info on your card...and the hope it is real.

But comparing it to brians card is all that is necessary. Cards this rare do not age over time with identical creases. They just don't. And if you look at enough fake vintage cards...you will see similar characteristics to yours.


This board has more "experts" on it than any grading company you will find.

Best of luck.

My advice to you...take a quality scan of your card. Zoom in to the pixels. Examine the detail of the eyes...the print. Yours will appear different.

+1 The reason we compare it to Brian's is because it is the one that the reprint/fake shown is made from. I am sure there are a few other real ones in the hobby but none will have identical creases and wrinkles.
