(Fake ?) Proposal scan

An Italian website is showing a "scan" of Garfield's famed Proposal.

Source : an Italian website.

As the art looks nothing like Quiton Hoover's, my guess is that's a fake.

What do you members think about it ?

Hi Jess.
This is indeed a Very Bad Fake

The template is obviously completely wrong (new white mana symbols, strange font...) but the artwork is quite nice and plausible (though not likely Hoover).

Surely a fake anyway.

I have seen this exact art before and heard it was definitely a fake.

Another fake proposal! And this one's not mine! :shock:

Wouldn't Proposal have the old white mana symbols, as opposed to the new versions?

Yes, it's a fake. Nothing to see here, move on....

This is one of the two fake images of Proposal which pollute the internet and which arrive in my email inbox once in a while. I have hosted the image above on this server and added the other image to this thread for the sake of completion.

This is the real Proposal art.

"Fake Proposal variant #1:" is the one I made for Bob Flaminio as an April Fools joke on the old website. ;D

No. 100% that's not Quinton, and it doesn't fit various descriptions I've heard.

Whatever it is, that's the art that shows on on my MWS' proposal. But yes, as everyone has said, it's fake. Mark Rosewater has confirmed it as such.

I KNOW that this is not the real card. There really is not more to say about these fake images.
