Here is card #5 in the Ruth candy card set. It was also graded by GAI and the 1st graded. It also passes the black light test. It has the San Francisco ad back.

Lastly this is card #1 from the Ruth candy card set. Again it was 1st graded by GAI and it passes the black light test. This one is blank backed.

Oh good, the San Fran cards can be good. Those are obviously quality images and both are not cropped at all.
Unless someone can present a cropped Ruth Candy card that is photo engraved on 20's Fro Joy type paper and does not fluoresce under the black light, we have our culprit. Ever notice the ones that pop up on ebay with the two tone, manufactured aging on the back have cropped images, like the one on ebay now? Half brown and half dark brown...there you go. |

Yeah, I noticed that too. You can tell it was artificially aged. We also proved that Ruth candy cards with the small numbers CAN be real. At least the better quality ones. I think some blank back cards are real also. My card #6 proved both points. Thanks for all your help Greg. I am glad we figured it out.
