Look at this card closely Real or Fake?

Grabbed this image from an old Leland auction.

Not sure if it helps. The only thing I can see different is the second stick of the "N" on Leland's has a notch out, or some kind of dark spot.

I'm not saying one way or the other... 2 concerns. It seems a bit too dark, and that may well not be a problem. And, below the dotted cut line it seems too bright, and that is a bit more troubling. It may well be ok.

Well, regardless of whether the card is real or not at least we know that it will be offered for 25% off in the days following the auction.

I owned this card. Sold it to a well known dealer at the National in Clevelend. Looks like it found its way to Bill.
Card was previously in a PSA 5 holder. I had some concerns about it so I crossed it over to SGC who gave it a 60.
So then; if it is not "real" it has fooled both of these grading services.
It's real. Overgraded? Perhaps, but real to be sure.
