I have a small stack of exhibit hockey cards none of the action cards you mention in your book Adam. A few of the cards have a colored tint mostly on faces like a skin tone but this goalie card of Jack Gélineau hard to read his name has some red above his pads also on his stick. I'm pretty sure these are legit original 48-52 cards.

It's probably a youngster's artwork. I have a partial set of a boxing series from 1947 where the owner carefully hand-colored the cards, and they look great.

Thanks for sharing this info. I only own one single Exhibit item and it looks to me based on your photos that it is fake. What's a bit strange is that it definitely passes the smell test. Curious if you know when these fakes were manufactured because this definitely reeks of authenticity. That said, I paid $20 for it, so no biggie.
Here it is, sorry for the less than optimal image clarity, but my iPhone 8 is on its last legs. ![]()

Several years back I got burned on some exhibits that I purchased, as they were all reprints. I've kind of steered away from them ever since. Here are a few that I still own from circa 1920s I believe.

Adam (or anyone)...if you have some advice as to how to avoid buying counterfeit Ted Williams Exhibit cards, or can post some examples of fakes, please share. Particularly interested in the "9 not showing" variety. Thanks!

Those are cut pieces from the 4 on 1 series from 1929-38.
As far as the Williams, just understand that the card was actually made into 1961. Besides making sure the card stock is good, you would want to look for one of the earlier printings. Keyman Cards has a good guide to distinguishing the print years based on the manufacturing info at the bottom of the card. What you want ideally is some form of "MADE IN USA" in all caps. If it says "printed in USA" it is a much later card.
