Thanks for the message Bryan. I viewed this item before, and the red flags I had #1 why is the '51 RC not graded, and also the centering on the '56 and '59 cards seem so perfect. Pointing out the "estate sale" description was something I would not have caught. The seller has 100% positive feedback, but the '51 Bowman RC itself looks like a real card to me, what do you see?

I suspect the 0 bids mean that not too many people are being fooled, but the card isn't horrid and there is a posted question about an authenticity guarantee, so I thought I would post it.
