Thanks for marking them as such. I own about 8 original shields and would not want the value of them to deminish.
I completely understand regarding your investment ... those originals can sell for many thousands of dollars (even in this lousy economy!) so I am hoping to fill a market need by selling my replicas at a fraction of the price.
I just sold a New Mexico US 66, and have relisted the auction, as I have four more left (I ran off 10 originally):
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270368367785as you can see, I included two photos with the REPLICA status clearly marked - I hope this measure decreases the opportunity for fraud by third-party tricksters!
the reason I do not use the word "replica" in the verbal description is because eBay has cancelled my auction before, and that's just not good for either buyers or sellers! I am hoping eBay is not talented enough to be looking through pictures with my sloppy power-drill handwriting!
