|||||||||
| A copy of card 1 is being produced by a group claiming to be The Manchurian Government in Exile. I don't know how seriously these people take this idea but watch out for these when buying. The genuine card has a white border and logo (bottom right), the copy does not. It is also much larger. | |||||||||
