1954 Hank Aaron & Ernie Banks authenticity opinion?

nkesterke09 · #1 03-11-2016, 06:00 AM

Received the cards yesterday and I am reassured more that they are authentic. Color, feel, and smell all accurate to what I currently have. Will send in for grading and update when I get them back. Thanks all!

I love the smell of vintage cards, but I have never used it in determining authenticity.....I would have to believe that the unique smell many vintage cards exhibit is one of the few things counterfeiters have yet to master.

One of the first things I do when I have a card in hand is to smell it as a check. I like to think it's a pretty accurate measure.
