Beware of FAKE Old Judge-

Posted By: MW

The Old Judge offered is 100% fake. Take a look at the white areas on the bottom edge and near the lower left corner on the left side of the card. REAL Old Judges do not suddenly appear "white" in areas where the card has wear. In other areas along the edges where wear was added, someone (the seller?) tried to cover it up with a burnt umber crayon. Also, take a look at the lettering...looks to be rescreened or lasercopied to me.

Trust me. If you expertly lasercopy the front and back of an N172, glue them together and then view them at 72 dpi (typical screen resolution), for the most part, you're not going to be able to distinguish between a fake (reprint) and the real thing.
