This was moved from the correct section to the front page to get a few more eyes on it.
I vote probably authentic but could definitely be a really good fake...

I stole a scan of a PSA 7 and put it next to it.

Not sure I like the colors on yours....

Agree. I have seen some red ones like Rizzuto be more pink. Definitely a debate whether there’s a premium attached to pink but from what I can tell the answer seems to be no.

I'm no expert on the set, but I assume it's authentic.

I think it's good as well.. There are several with the same extra red border appendages in PSA holders. One attached.

Have you tried loupe examination (evidence of modern or ink jet printing)? Black light (does it fluoresce?) Does light from a lamp go through the cardboard (it shouldn't)? Does it feel like old, dense cardboard? Does it smell like something old?

There is a thread on Net54 that discusses the space between the shoulder and the edge of the card.
