T3 Cabinet Reprints

Anyone know how many T3 Reprints have been produced and tips on how to identify a genuine T3 from a reprint.....I want to buy some more of these Cabinets and need to educate myself before i buy.....With the cost of these you can't afford to learn the hard way!!
Buying Vintage Boxing...especially T218 and T220..email if you have cards you would like to sell.

    I know of two different Turkey Red reprint sets. The first one is easy to spot as the cards were reprinted in the now standard 2 1/2" by 3 1/2" size. The second and more recent reprint set was issued by Mike Wheat and is the original size and even attempts to replicate the textured feel of the originals. The Mike Wheat set also includes additional cards of Honus Wagner and Joe Jackson, who were not in the original set. These reprints can be distinguished from the originals by the "starburst" design on the bottom reverse corners of each card. The original cards do not have this "starburst" design.
