Found this on Craigslist. Just would like to know if it the real deal or bull:) I looked up this design its from 1900. Only found one like it online but had a white border and didn't see the brass gromits either.
What is it made of ? Looks like a repro to me but no expert . I see many like it for sale on ebay and etsy . Very cool no matter what -)
It said porcelain in the description.

You're right Trey, posting fakes is really educating for others!
Except for those who are SURE their Coca Cola bench, (mirror, sign...) is the real thing even when specialists say REPRO, lol.
