This item has no charm and no vintage value. This fantasy design first began appearing in 1995, the dawning year of the "crapalanche" of items that have made our fun hobby more perilous to uneducated collectors.
Fakes, etc.
I'll begin populating this page with photos of reproductions, fakes and fantasy items as I see them listed on eBay, Etsy and other such sites. Hopefully, collectors will refer to this page to minimize the occasions reproductions, fakes and fantasy items are unknowingly purchased. If you see something on this page that was sold to you purporting to be a vintage item, immediately send it back for a full refund.
