Can anyone tell me what the telltale signs are that a 1940 playball is real or fake? Thanks for any input. |

Do you have the scan of a particular card? Or is there anything peculiar about the card or cards? If only stars like DiMaggio and Williams are available and the dealer is an unknown, that's a red flag ... |

The card is a Williams and has been offered to me on ebay as a "second chance". I'm not sure how to post the listing as I don't work with computers much. The seller has good feedback and has sold many cards although mostly commons. The red flag is that the card, although off center, looks to be in terrific shape but the seller is asking only $111.00 which was my last bid on the card when it was originally listed. The winning bid that time was $388.00 but for some reason the deal fell through. |

It looks good to me, but wish I could see the catcher's mitt, covered by the watermark and check edge spacing. Bigger scans would be nice. Oh well, at least he offers Paypal. |

Im sorry if I offend but I have been watching this seller for quite some time. He/she sells an awful lot of questionable cards. A fake Plank was the last I remember for sure.. The auction description was the same ole line. Also, dig through this sellers feedback, you will notice if you dig far enough that he has received negatived feedback for selling fakes.. My personal opinion is to stay away, stay very far away.. Have a good day |

MFerraro in the past has been a scam artist! last year he sold a lot of fakes with the "can't guarentee" line. I have wrote hime quite alot in the past letting him know what I thought about his fake cards. He does sell some authentic stuff inbetween the fakes, and seems to be selling more lately. Id say Run though! |
