Does this flip looks fishy?

The fact that the card is in Singapore doesn't instill much confidence in me either.
"My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    I would ask for a scan of the back, if the seller obliges ~~~ i'd say the auction is legit ..... if not don't touch it !!!

    Right now, I'm borderline but it looks real..
    A lot of times, I can just tell from the "blue" color on the front. The real copy is suppose to be a natural ocean/navy blue. If it's bluish/purple or dark blue, it's a fake. Scan is a bit too small to tell for sure. See if you can get a larger scan of the front and ask for a scan of the back and share it here....I can tell you for sure.

    The font is what doesn't look right to me. I think PSA used that font a while back, but it was when the corners on the flip (red area) were rounded, not squared off. I don't think I'd ever buy a PSA card from Singapore anyway, but this one just doesn't look right to me.

    I know very little about graded cards, but I was looking at some of my PSA slabs and noticed I had two whose labels are very different from the rest of my slabs. They themselves are different from one another on the back, as they have hologram stickers, both being different from one another. I'm just assuming they are older slabs. Do I have anything to worry about here?
