Thanks Mark. I was aware of the reprints: there are scads of them on eBay, to the point where I wouldn't even consider a purchase outside a TPG holder or from a dealer I know who knows the issue. I was only looking at this issue because I purchased this card recently:



Normally I'd worry that the card itself wasn't authenticated but the signature is spot-on (I've been collecting his signatures for 20+ years: I know a good one) and Lefty died in 1969, so I figured the card was very likely a genuine 1949 SK example I did not have yet.

I can't believe no one has even graded a single Lefty with PSA. Guess I will have to send in my 1948.

Adam...That signature is a good O'Doul and it looks to be from an era close to when the card was issued... From what I can see the card looks good as well.. good contrast rather than the graininess you typically see with the counterfeits

Yeah, I was pretty stoked to find it. Since I collect Lefty and I did not have that card it was a doubly happy find, made even better by the 15% off eBay coupon yesterday.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Mark, I checked my notes: guess who sold me the 48 O’Doul in 2009?

I can't imagine where it came from Adam ..... Regarding the picture of O'Doul's restaurant... Lefty O'Doul's restaurant on Union Square closed last year...The O'Doul family told me last week that Nick Bovis is opening up a new place at Fisherman's Wharf...Hopefully it lasts many years...
