Is it ethical to alter cards and sell them without disclosure?

Fair enough. In Brian's Bob Ewing example above, can we stipulate that the mustache doesn't have to be disclosed if we call it "natural growth?" And removing the mustache again is fine as long as it's "shaving" and not "erasing?"

Unfortunately Ewing's mustache is not natural, being a construct of horse hairs and porcupine quills, and is held on by adhesive that would leave sticky residue if this facial hair substitute was removed. Ethical calisthenics would be required if I were to remove the adhesive and decide to go down the nondisclosure route.
