Fake K-Bats cabinet

I normally wouldn't post on such things. I thought this was an obvious fake but someone was willing to bid it up a bit. This is a copy of the original that Mastro sold in April '07. Same photo cropping, position, even stain on Hanlon's right elbow.

Not sure about the sellers other 19th century cabinets which also closed at a decent price.

That's a bad fake. Hope someone hasn't actually paid $2100 for it.

this seller is the reincarnation of seller josefina1747 who specializes in misleading,
vague and generally shady listings. uses the phony grading company SCG on both their old
and new seller ID. plays dumb in the descriptions but if you e-mail them all of a sudden
they get a whole lot sharper depending on if it works to their advantage. mixes real
items with fakes among their inventory. a real slimeball IMO despite what the numeriacal
feedback might suggest.

There was a thread on this seller a couple of days ago. He/she was selling a Honest Cabinet and couple other fake 19th century stuff. The cabinet was pulled. Here is the link to the other thread...
