I am pretty confident that this is a prototype, based on the description the seller gives of its origins, the unique factory stamp on the packaging, and the quality of the hand-paint job, different on both sides. Certainly one-of-a-kind.

Anything can be faked, especially if you don’t know what it is “supposed” to look like. And he offers no provenance to support his claim. I approach this with a heavy dose of skepticism.

Oooooooo, I did see one towards the end. I had done a nasty PC

foot on the slipper slope.
