...this thing's as fake as the day is long...it's so obviously a poorly-done fantasy face on an old body - kinda like Mickey Rourke, I suppose...for some reason people are bidding on it, even with the bizarre logo... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170292900267
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

That logo is so strange looking, I just had to email the seller and ask about the authenticity of the piece. He told me he can't be sure if it is a repo or not. His answer only confirms my suspicion.
