Nope, not "art". Why would anybody want an "aged" reprint unless they were going to try to pass it off as the real deal?

    That too, although I would make an exception for something like Topps Archives Reserves. They are technically reprints (reprint refractors I guess), but I still like them.

    "Also, I think the DEGREE to which you aged it is spot-on."
    "Lastly, the DEPTH of the aging is also spot-on."

    Bzzzzt. The corners are still pretty sharp.

    I am actually in the market for a reprint. I'm collecting the T206 Cardinals set and know that I will never own the O'Hara because of my limitted budget. In order for the display to be complete I need a fairly close O'Hara reprint. It's not meant to deceive and I will never sell it as real. So not every reprint is purchased with the intent to defraud the unsuspecting.

    The bigger question here is: does searching for a Wagner reprint on eBay make you racist?
