Bill, are they still available somewhere? I would be fine with a repro to put in a case

My comment about "reproductions" was not meant as a comment about Mark's tin, only a message for those still searching for one.

Reproduction label on an old tin on ebay.com as we speak. The seller describes it as a reproduction. It is up to $58.00 this morning. Will it be a repro next time it is sold? As I posted earlier, "Buyer beware."
