This pulp item form has been reproduced in the last few years using the original molds, so it is very hard to discern newly made from authentic vintage pieces. If you like this kind of thing, just be sure to ask a lot of questions of the seller as to where they got it, or how long they have had it in their personal collections. I suspect that this reality accounts for why this item is still lingering with a BIN price of $149.
