Think what you want, or say what you want. It simply is not that case.
Galazan has previously offered 3 different pads at 3 different price points. The $30 "Period Correct" recoil pad (these are junk in my opinion), the $50 "#3 Pad S.W. Silver & Co Style" ("Style" is the key word), and the $75 "Original S.W. Silvers Recoil Pad".
I am looking at these offerings as I write this in Galazans Catalog number 20. The current catalog number 23 does not have the $75 pad in it anymore.
The $75 pad was an actual Silvers Pad imported from England, which is the same pad you would buy from Kynoch today. The $50 pad is and always was a Reproduction. Again, note the catalog title calling it a Silvers "style" pad.
