I'll call it a fantasy piece because I don't believe there are any genuine examples. Would love to see one if I'm wrong.

As a side note....I bought one of these as a teenager in an antique mall for about $15 assuming it was not very old. I moved away to college leaving most of my possessions back at my moms house. Fast forward 4 or 5 years.....I kind of forgot about it but my mom sure didn't. Christmas time rolls around and I'm peeling the wrapping off what turns out to to be a really nice custom frame with my Lou Gehrig matted and behind non glare glass
I couldn't ever bring myself to tell her she spent about $200 to frame a $15 piece
I just know she probably stood at the frame shop for hours picking out the perfect frame and matting. A piece I will always treasure because of what she did.
