EBay # 291772504348 I'm wondering if this is the real deal or one of those Mumbia gut kickers -the only reason I ask is I was knocking around the idea of bidding, but then to me the porcelain looks kinda wavy and I don't remember if there is something other than "Made in USA" in the left corner of the originals. It sucks that its come to this with the reproductions.

Seller is pretty good about marking his repop stuff in his auctions. IMO It all looks right but I've been wrong before.

I have bought a few good items from this seller but it has been quite a few years.


Thanks
Mike

I would be leery of this sign. While I havent paid close attention to them in the past or present, I noticed a couple of things missing just at first glance. One is very subtle and the other is a biggie. All the signs of that period, round or square, say, Chrysler Plymouth . Also the grey outline is missing from letters.

sign of subject does have grey around the letters,
only difference I see is the Chrysler missing
seller guarantee's sign as original
this seller has always had a mix of orig./repo's
& have been labeled as such .. ... cool
