Olebbstuff! just made a 10,000% profit on this counterfeit card on the bottom. Most buyers knew to stay away, but all it takes is one. Free money, Hell yea!

The fakes have been all over ebay for the last few months. They are basically killing the value of the authentic cards (similar to the Fro-Joys).

Both of these sets are actually rare. Lipset estimated there were less than 50 of the GHRuth Candy cards out there (Vol 2 Encyclopedia of Baseball cards, 1984). I think there are more, but not a whole lot more.

The card on top (authentic) just went for $46.

Why do the reprints sell for 5X more than the authentic ones.

Collectors are scared of this issue.

Do you own the top one? It looks a little grainier than normal from that scan. The bottom one is really a poor fake....regards

Its the same type as one Ive owned for a long time.

Same color, and font etc. Also it has a full uncropped picture.

Here is another SF back


These are the sepia types with SF back. I always look for these and they are very tough. I only see maybe 2 a year of this type.

Congrats Frank, I took a snooze! Glad it stayed in the fam... Enjoy
