This model has a reproduction decal applied. Notice that the decal still has a yellowy shade to it. Just because a decal looks yellow, it is not necessarily old. The edge of the decal around the cross is in a square shape that does not follow the cross like the original. That is perhaps the biggest give away that it is a reproduction decal. However, if you compare the size of the cross and the thickness of the writing, you will notice a difference from the original. |
