Default Seeking opinions on a 1919 World Series ticket

Hi, this 1919 World Series ticket comes from the collection of George Keniston, a longtime collector who passed away earlier this year, and I'm selling it for his widow. George certainly believed this be real, but I would like to make sure before I put it up for sale. I'm no ticket expert, but coloration around the edges of a baseball card always makes me skeptical. What do you think? Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks, Chris

Obviously a much better opinion could be given if the ticket was in hand, but I do not like the look of it and it looks similar in wear to many of the paper knock offs you see around. It almost appears like it is a high res copy overlayed on thicker stock. Maybe take better photos of the edge wear. Just my opinion.

Loupe it as well, or scan a small area at very high resolution.

Examine it under UV light. If there's any glow, it's bogus.

Default Blacklight & Dot-matrix

Couple of good reads:

A black light is effective in identifying many, though not all, modern paper stocks. This allows the collector and dealer to identify modern reprints and fakes of antique trading cards, posters, photographs, programs and other paper memorabilia. Many people buy a black light specifically for this purpose...

http://www.cycleback.com/blacklight/optical.html

Most reproductions are made from a dot-matrix or half tone process, which produces a lentiginous image composed of a symmetrical pattern of small dots.. If you look through a fairly powerful magnifier (e.g. 10X) and you see little dots (either black & white or color), then you have a reproduction.

Absolutely genuine, IMHO.
BTW, George owned that ticket for many, many years and I have seen it up close.

Then there is your answer. If someone who is very familiar with the item says it's good, I would trust that opinion.

If you think it's fake I'll take it���������� do what David said he knows.

Hey everyone,

I bought this a few months ago and really believed it to be real. I sought the knowledge of someone who knows this exact ticket (thanks Scott) and he attested to its authenticity. I just wanted to show the board I received it back from PSA yesterday and they concurred it's real.

Thanks,
Greg
