    Looks real to me. Might be altered as the right side of card (next to Ryan) looks like it might have been trimmed but could just be an optical illusion from the holder. Doesn’t make sense they would trim the short side.

    Real but likely Milton Bradley boardgame issued vs wax, cello or rack pulled.

    Unsure, but that was my first reaction, as well, to immediately think it's a Milton Bradley issue.

    I am going with a Milton Bradley as well.

    It is an authentic Milton Bradley. That line on the front is more tell-tale to me than the back color which doesn't look as bright yellow on some than others.

    As far as size or trimming, I would recommend starting out with measuring it. And if you believe the corners are strong (can't zoom in), the 9OC is only a pop 1 right now with 2 actual 9s and no 10s.

    I can tell if it's real or fake without looking at the card. Give us the story of the provenance first.

    Collecting PSA 9's from 1970-1977. Raw 9's from 72-77. Raw 10's from '78-'83.
    Collecting Unopened from '72-'83; mostly BBCE certified boxes/cases/racks.
    Prefer to buy in bulk.
