Definitely a counterfeit/reprint. I always refer back to this article. Shoulder check is easy to spot. https://www.cardboardconnection.com/how-to-spot-a-fake-wayne-gretzky-rookie-card ------------------------------- -- Mike @ VVcards -- Looking to complete OPC and Upper Deck master sets for hockey including Young Guns and update sets.

Great article. From reading that article and know little about the set it was easy to see the card as a fake. Thanks for the link. I enjoy learning more about our hobby. ------------------------------- If you are asking me then you are in big trouble.
