Another item I have come across. I'm 99% sure its fake because of how amazing the condition is and it being one of the most faxed cards but you never now. Any info on telling would be amazing

Real or fake not sure i would take it to be graded by a recognized baseball card valueator. It will cost a couple bucks but you will know for sure. Very nice card.

Hi, checked the bbc site and it has all the right marks as a type one card , but

I read..... hold a strong light behind it, and if you can see the printing on the back....it's fake. Hard to fake the cardboard apparently. Yes, looks like a type 1 to me too. Has the yellow bleeddown on the black border too.
