    I know nothing about this issue. Is it fake or just graded by a knockoff company because it's too trimmed to be graded by a reputable company?

    Is there a reason other then the fact it is in some bogus holder that
    made you think it is a counterfiet?

    I think it's a cool card worthy of an "authentic" slab.

    That's my guess. Still worth having, just not worth paying registry prices for. Back when we cut them out, nobody knew what PSA would require 45 years later.

  • I apologize for the error on my behalf! I quick deleted as the report I received from someone else may have been misjudged. I quickly deleted after further examination of the card's listing. It was reported to me by an OPC collector as a fake because of the make shift label he mistook as another company. And that is WHY I quickly deleted and reposted. I apologize for any confusion or problems. I just wanted the board to know.

    FWIW many of those Post/jello cards were counterfeited I don't know how to tell though.

    I thought maybe you did.

    lol yeah we wern't gonna let you off that easy Earl.


    lol

    Good for you.
  • Thanks Steve! I may have jumped the gun a little too fast. I HATE SCAM artists! They are trying to ruin the Hobby! I mean this guy IS trying to pawn it off as a legitimately graded card by a professional TPG. That's the thing that bugs me about the listing for the most part. I hope I didn't cause anyone any alarm...just trying to protect the collecting community. It was almost SCARY to see so many posts appear so FAST!!! I was swarmed, hog-tied and done in before I could hit the delete key! image Thanks everyone for cuttin' me some slack! lol

    It looks like a parallelagram the way it's cut.

    Lol, that looks like the card is in a plastic screw down holder with an Avery file folder label (trimmed).

    The card is legit. Post Canadian version of the US Post ceral card. If graded, it would probably get a PSA A, although I have seen them with miscut borders in PSA 3-5 depending upon how much border is left surrouding the card.

  • Wow, I think all of us could make a better graded label than that.

    Isnt SCG the "companty" that metalmike used to go on and on about? A search of metalmike and SCG might bring up something.

    Edited to add: Link didnt work, just search metalmike and SCG and there's about 5 threads on SCG.

    A good way to tell if these cards are fake is by examining the printing on the back of the card.

  • WinPitcherWinPitcher Posts: 27,726 ✭✭✭
    I was under the impression that they are blank backed?
