If I recall correctly, and I might not be, these were made later than the originals and there are some issues surrounding them (mainly the date of mfg, I believe). That seller doesn't instill too much confidence either.

I think Leon is thinking of different OJ pieces made in the 20's or so...I agree w/others...looks like same as an n173 w/studio name instead of advertisement.

No, Leon is dead on
These are 2nd (or 3rd) generation reprints from the 20th century.
There was a Vermont "find"

my bad...I remember framed advertising like sheets from the 20's or 30's as well...sorry, Leon!

It is from the Vermont find... Many of those are Doran.

The Vermont Find ones appear to have been made in the early 1900s. So they are old, but not originals. The one on eBay appears to be one of the Vermont Find ones.
