Note that although the cards are unnumbered, they do correspond with numbers 6-10 of the W515-1 set, which suggests they were properly placed on a strip that followed the same printing scheme. Still, the "Made in Germany" statement seems almost conveniently placed to me.
I am skeptical as I said in the first thread Brian pointed to. I could be wrong..I would like to be able to hold it in person...

To shift this into a money making enterprise, I have concocted a scheme to charge people $20, which would allow them to fondle my Adams card for a 15 minute interval.

First of all, as I said and want to reiterate, I don't think it's real from others I have seen but it definitely could be., I have seen one-off strip cards before...and have owned a few.

Now as far as your Adams, as long as it's not your Johnson you're letting me hold, I think we are fine!

I tested the Adams with a black light, and it does not fluoresce. And I have rescanned it, and now have a back scan.

As of yet, no Johnson has been spotted, so for the time being we are in the clear, and my card pimping enterprise is still a go.

I used to own these. Note the red W572. No doubt it's legitimate.....I think a board member has it now..

Are fondle tickets sold in advance?
Or can I get in line at the door,
with my white gloves adorned and knuckles cracked?
