The first thing that drew my eye was the apparent artificial aging to the interior of the case. If the bed got so dirty naturally, I would expect to see an accumulation of dust, detritus and other bits in the area arrowed below. The clean white area around the base looks false to me.
I'm not well up on my Imperial EK1s but I'm not keen on it. It reminds me of a Latvian type. I might be wrong, hopefully someone who knows their Imperials will give their thoughts, or perhaps post it in that forum?
