Default Beware of yet another fake...

Posted By: Aaron Patton

Before I get sick, could someone please expand here.

I'm assuming the reproduction will have laser printing dots?

I am from Ohio, and have the piece in my collection. It looks and feels legit (and I have a picture of Halper's version) ... However, didnt know there were fakes of these running around.

Left corner is damaged, with fading on the left side (just like Halper's).

Though, Heritage sold a copy in October 2005 that had similar wear in the left-corner:

What could be a reason for similar wear between exemplars?

Bought it at a local shop (Westerville OH) for 550.00 (in November). What course of action (for those of you that have been burned) ...do I take in this matter?

I feel absolutely devestated.
