Doubts are good. it is a fake decal

Two "musts". Kelly Hicks SS Steel book. Second, everytime an authentic decal shot is posted up on any board, save it. Save it by catagory. Q, NS, Pocher etc.

We have a decal reference section over the hill for that express purpose.

It's hard to explain but the more you study the different varients, the more you absorb, the easier it is in most cases to make the call. Each type has something that makes it "that" type.

Think of it as a challenge. Everytime someone posts up "What do you think about this one ??" DON'T look at the replies. Look at your own references and you make the call. THEN see what everyone else said.

And if you are ever in a position to purchase one. Regardless of what you think, get some opinions from the experts in the field.
