1928 George Ruth Candy Cards (Set of 6)

[Clutch-Hitter]

Frank's far left example above:

• small card number
• cropped image
• poor quality

****The cards with small card numbers that are currently presumed authentic are black and white, but not as high quality as Leon's. Sepia cards with small card numbers appear to be fake.**************

It would make sense for it to be modeled after an authentic. If so the authentic card would have a small card number, a full, non-cropped image, resulting in higher quality.

Examples of cards with small card numbers: authentic on left (presumed at this point), fake on right


Small card number, San Fran back, next to an authentic (note the cropped image on fake):

Frank's middle example above

• large card number
• cropped image
• lesser quality
• San Francisco back

Cropped image is not looking good for authentic cards, and I haven't found a real looking San Fransisco example yet.
