To the experts - I'm hoping someone can help me identify my Flying Goddess as an original or a reproduction. I have compared side-by-side to an original (that I know is 100% original) and I can't see any differences to my eye. I also have a reproduction (that I bought off eBay for $50) as well and I can clearly see differences. The Goddess is a single stud and the words "DESIGN PATENT 81303" match that of my original. The text font looks slightly different than that of the original but that may be attributed to the fact that I had the original re-finished and re-chromed. Pics of the one in question are below.
I've also added pics of a Heron as well. Need to know if this is original. Pics also below.
Thanks in advance.
Pics of the Heron are below. Again thanks in advance for and feedback and info you can provide.
Anyone? :)
Bumping to the top in hopes someone might be able to provide some info...
