[Mccoypottery-talk] a new mcfake??

[Tim Harlan]

Ben;
the only way is to be as knowledgeable as possible.    Study the reference =
books,  try to get a feel for the real thing.    Color of glaze,  detailing=
,  weight, and realizing that McCoy never made certain things.    I know th=
at is a simplified answer, but it is what I am striving to do.=20=20=20=20
   Its hard to be sure by looking at pictures on ebay of some of these fake=
s.  In those cases, look closely at the seller,  see what else he is sellin=
g.   Does he have more than one "Rare" item listed?,   Is his feedback and =
bidder list private?
   If all else fails, ask on this talk list.    There are some real experts=
 on here.
Good luck.
Tim
