    The rounded corners were the first thing I noticed as well. Not the real deal in my opinion.

    No way. Think about what those corners would have to have gone through to get rounded like that, but the surface is clean and crease-free? Nah.

    Aside from the intentionally rounded corners, the “Big League” font isn’t crisp and sort of fades into the surrounding red. That is something that you’ll see on almost every reprint.

    Fake as it gets. I like the fact they went out of the way to find some terrible old cracked case to put the card in too. lol
