    Default Hitler bust? fake ?

    Hi, a seller contacted me about this piece, he says its 20cm high, weighs 2kgs and is made of marble, and there is a makers name wich says schin.... and rest he is not able to read...

    I think it looks more like a plaster made copy that is painted, but when i asked this he said he's 100% sure its marble or some kind of stone?
    opinions wouldt be great

    It looks nothing like marble to me. I think you're right with your plaster copy thoughts.

    Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

    I've got to agree with you, it looks like someone has made a mould from an original and knocked up a plaster copy from that and painted it. I might be wrong but it looks dodgy to me.

    Thats what i thought too...
    But seller insists its marble or some kind of stone, and that it may have been painted. If it is indeed a copy of a original, what would the maker's mark say ?

    Don't know what the makers mark would say but I can see what looks like air bubbles on the forehead, never seen that in marble before.
