I know it is a fantasy piece/reproduction/fake (whatever you choose to call it), I knew it when I bid on it, just thought it would look cool in my memorabilia room. I am never going to own the $100K real piece, but this will suffice. I won't try and sell it as real on here either :D

Heck yeah, For $52.00 go for it and enjoy...like ya say the average bear will never own a real one for $100K....so you sorround it with real pieces and use it for background.

Exactly what I plan on Carlton. By the way, your website is awesome!!
There is no issue buying a reproduced item as long as that is the way it is being sold.

Since there has been a controversial thread on this piece before (last year I think), for the benefit of some, I will post high resolution scans and allow people to see. To me, the mystery surrounding this piece is that it does not look inexpensive to make, coupled with the fact I have not seen, literally, multiples of it before anywhere. Only every now and then do I see it come up, even if for eBay. I paid $52 for this, and if the 'bay pictures are realistic at all, it seems of higher quality and (tongue in cheek here), not worth my time or effort if all I am going to get out of it is Fifty bucks. Just my opinion, though. I am not professing it to be anything other than a fantasy/repro, just posing a question: If a repro, where are all the others?? It looks die cut to me, indicating cost, color litho, again indicating cost, etc.
