Shiny fresh steel around the front rim mixed with new looking rust is not a good sign

The last full pic of the liner...one can observe what appears to be a staining agent on the right hand side of the metal band about the 4:00 position. Looks like they did not complete the antiquing process. The center stitching is too tight, rubber pads are questionable. I still must opine the liner is fake IMO...straps I cannot tell, As Terry said...the shell appears okay, but I think the paint has been compromised some how.

Also..if one observes the upper rim of the liner...there is no wear to the leather. It's just stained. That's were one should see some scuffing or abrasion to the leather. That's where contact is made with the head, around the upper rim of the leather. This shows none of that
