ek2 with spange attached to ribbon

[Dave Wyatt]

Any thoughts on originality of both. Can't get the prongs cause ribbon is sewn

[George Stimson]

The Spange is a commonly encountered repro.

And a particularly ugly one at that.

Head looks like a woodpecker.

I can't say for sure if it's fake.

I don't like it.
The wings seems also to have an uneven length to them?

PS I do not like the first spange either.

The EK2 is a very nice, very uncommon so-called "1914 Type A" because the core mold is based on the famous 1870 Type A core.
Probably made by Wagner (one of them).
Too bad the Spange is a fake.
