Opinions on the authenticity of this scarce card?

Oh, and he also says it still smells of tobacco 97 years later. PASS!

Agreed. Seems like the seller is trying a little too hard. I don't like the coloring of the card either and am leaning towards questionable authenticity.

On July 18th he sold a T206 George Brown.

On July 19th he received positive feedback for the card ("it is nice card thank you").

Today, July 21st, he is selling the exact same card again.


p.s. He sold the card at 8pm his time on July 18th and received the positive feedback the next morning at 10:30am. Apparently, he mails his cards via particle accelerator.

My guess is he'll be gone soon.

Obvious crook. But, like the autograph buyers on ebay, many buyers are morons too, and keep people like this in business.

Hopefully he'll be gone, but until then, buyers should say, when there is a Cobb, Jackson, etc sooo cheap. If It walks like a duck, talks like a duck, it sure as hell isn't a goose.

Agreed, a fake. Reprint sets are for sale online. With a little 80 grit, Tetley and a no-refund policy, you've got a windfall!

Oh, rounded corners on a T200 is even less likely than a refund from Madoff.

I'm not reading any more of your posts until after I finish my coffee.

I just did a spit take all over my keyboard.
