    I don't know if they are real or not as I collect pre-1985, but here are links to make them easier to look at for everyone.

    Roger Maris Jersey Card 1

    Roger Maris Jersey Card 2

    But I have promises to keep,
    And miles to go before I sleep,
    And miles to go before I sleep."

    Real in what sense? It seems that it is a real game used card that has Roger Maris on it. But if you read the back it says, "On the front of this card is a piece of memorabilia that has been certified to us as having been used in a Major League Baseball Game."

    Nothing about it being USED by ROGER MARIS, just that someone used in in a MLB game. Could have been a Yanks bench warmer from 2006 for all you know.

    So, yes, I think it's a real piece of jersey, just one NOT used by Roger Maris.
    Looking for Carl Willey items.

    After approximately 2004, Upper Deck began using statements on the back of game used cards just like the card you referenced. The word it in such a way that allows them to insert any game-used jersey piece into the card. Topps is guilty of it too. This is likely the primary reason game-used cards have gone down the toilet.

    I've got some genuine wood from Noah's Ark if any buyers of these cards are interested.

    i was just finishing up the book "card sharks" and thought this maris card was a perfect example of a counterfeit card... only because i was unfortunate enough to find one in my PC..

    Steve, I'm very interested. Do you have the Panda Bear card? How about the Koala Bear one?

    I'm assuming they are 1 of 2. image

    Yes, and hand signed and authenticated by Noah himself certifying the bears were there.
