<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 9814636, member: 23"]As for OP's post - I don't think you can determine whether it's original or a repro online. You'll have to get it validated in person. I have stuff that belonged to my parents, but it doesn't mean it's old because it was owned by a grandparent. I don't mean to sound disparaging, but having been in the business as long as I have (68 years) I know looks and family lore don't always tell the whole story. I stared helping out in my Dad's second hand store when I was 8. He never learned to read so I kept the log book for him.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
