1980 W3TV Ripken - is this real or not real!

danimal · Feb 8, 2012

I've been watching this ebay item and doing my research do any of the other Ripken collectors have any opinions? I leaning towards not real due to the left white border being wider than the right white border. Any other thoughts.

I'm definitely not the Minor League issue expert, but being a (0) seller and graded by GEM, I wouldn't have given it a second look or bothered watching it.
NO way I'D even buy it with YOUR money.

Why would GEM grade it if it was a fake?

Clearly I was kidding.

Though apparently not clearly enough.

For the record it is WBTV. Beckett can cite that they have a "source" all they want. They will still be wrong. I did an interview with them when Cal was inducted in the HOF. While flattered they would include me in the issue they changed my WBTV reference to W3TV.
