just wondering thoughts on this one..I believe it to be a reproduction but if it is real I want to go after it. I am new to this hobby and input would help.
Thanks,
Jake

I agree, and by the looks of the sign it has not been hanging outside on a fence for the past 35-40 years. I call BS on that story!

Originals are Embossed Tin, this one appears to be porcelain. A few years ago some remakes were made that are embossed, but W/0 the makers name on bottom right corner.
