    I picked this up at an auction. It was part of a collection of phones. I can't find anything on it. Any info would be appreciated. I feel like it has been touched up, but not sure. Not sure if it is real. Again, any help would be great.

      It looks like a real sign of the pattern used from 1921-1939. It is a common pattern but can be tricky to find one in really nice condition. If it has not been touched up, it would be worth around $200 in that condition. Check it with a black light to see if any areas are painted over.
