The problem is the card on the left. The lettering on his name is also blurry. The card is darker on front and back not because it is dirty, but because of small print dots all over the card. I have sent an email to the eBay seller and hopefully he/she will help work with me on this.

Thanks,
Paul

Left is fake - in addition to coloring, the crease is not one that you see in T206 cards - compare it to the one on the right

Look at the font boldness weight for "SUBJECTS" and "BASEBALL BALL SERIES" -- The one of the left is a lot heavier

Default The space within

I know the pictures may be deceiving me, but doesn't the one on the left have an area (within the borders) taller than the real one on the right? If they are indeed different sizes within the borders, that would be another glaring indicator that the left one is fake, as various examples of a particular T206 subject should be sized the same inside the borders. Here is an example of two different authentic T206 Tris Speaker cards I spotted on ebay that illustrate my point:

And now I have noticed the back scans of Matty provided...man that fake one is so much bigger. Did no one else notice this disparity?
