Please excuse my ignorance on this, but what are the 2 cards directly below the Jackson & the Thomas?

Thanks-

A few more for my 1920's Speaker collection.

Hello, i am a NEWB

I just recently bought a Ernie Lombardi on Ebay, 1934 Goudy, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...K%3AMEWNX%3AIT

The card came from an auction held by SPC AUCTIONs. A friend, who recommended me to this site, had suggested I be very careful of counterfeit pre-war cards, so here I am. I have no idea if this is real or not, I should have the card by the weekend, what do i need to look for? I know on rookie cards like Rod Carew, Pete Rose, etc. that the fakes are 2 good and that gives them away but what do you look for on pre-war cards?

This maybe the wrong forum to post this so if there is a different thread out there I would appreciate the link.

I am collecting all the Hall of Fame catchers sigs if possible and when not I am going after original cards and then finally modern jersey/bat cards of the player. I need Roger Bresnahan, Bucke Ewing, Gabby Hartnett, and Ray Schalk to complete this project.

NEWB, I think you have reason to be concerned. Border and back look too white to be authentic. Of course, without seeing it in person no way to be sure.

At least you only lost 40 bucks on it.

Hello again, thank you for the response and the tip.

Here is the LOT : http://www.scpauctions.com/LotDetail...AND-BILL-TERRY

It looks as though the Ernie is discolored in these photos, still, lesson learned. Thanks guys.

This just came in the mail, courtesy of Bill Cornell. He was going to keep all the PCs in this lot from REA but generously agreed to sell me this one for my Milan collection.

Thanks, Bill!

Nothing wrong with that card.
