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.
