Bruce,

When I saw the metal version at the flea market I thought it was "not correct" and the quality was terrible. AND it was the face only, did not have a pencil/pen holder, so I passed on the deal. After thought, "that was kind of dumb" even a poor repro is better than no repro.

Redirecting an ancient thread. Found one of these in Syracuse, NY. Bruce, out of curiosity, do you know what the bottom looked like? Mine has a Syroco-Wood sticker on it. Just trying to confirm it’s original and not I’ve of the aforementioned repros. Thanks!
