I notice that most of the signs this guy sells are pump plates and the same brand....are these original??? look at his feedback and you can click link to his old auctions and see these ones that he apparently specializes in....

NO!!!! This is a repop. Look at the C. It looks like there is a bite taken out of the side of an O. The real plate "C" Has a more open top and bottom.

just to give some variation... I have one of these 15" plates... if you look closely the black border of the 'T' is thicker and where the X & A meet the top of the star is a little different than what Eric (maxgas) posted... and I believe mine to be the real deal as well?

another question... mine has a white back. do all originals have white backs, or are there some with black backs like the fakes?
