Opinions on the authenticity of this scarce card?

[Matthew H]

He just sold this card:

He bought this card (linked from feedback left as a buyer)

He sold it here for a profit:

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.

100% Reprint.. Stay far away.

Thanks all. It looked reprintish to me also and the back definitely looks wrong but I thought maybe I was just being too harsh.

i do understand why you used the word 'rare' because I,too, have been searching for this card along with the
Boston NL for several years now.
Scarce is undoubtedly the better choice of words for the 2 cards but they
seem rare as i look and look day after day. If I weren't hoping for a bit of a bargain, the looking would've been over, i must confess.
best,
