 Interested in one of these, were they reproduced? looks an easy target but double sided so a bit harder to make?

Hi Hoarder, yes they have been repro'd, but all the ones i've seen are smaller than the 30" real versions.
The one in the link is genuine

Thanks, Mark, The example above is only 21"? but agree it does look genuine hanging holes in the correct positions and makers mark present.

Correct Lummox It looks real but does the smaller size suggest it might not be, what's your opinion?

Sorry, just to clarify, there are 2 sizes of this design 21 and 30inch (anyone seen another genuine size?), but iv'e come across 12" repro versions before on marketplace, and quite good it was as well. The one in your link is genuine.
