I need a couple second opinions. Is this the real deal? The bottom of it seems to have faded a bit due to exposure to something. It measures 12 1/2" at its widest tip to tip point and 13" from top to bottom tip. The red on the back is paint that is flaking off pretty easily.Help!

Looks ok to me, things had a hard life

appears too have been abused .. ...

I like character as long as it is the real thing.

Id say its original, just not as much so as it once was!! Lol

I agree, looks fine to me, just a really weathered example.

Looks good…I have one in my collection.
