Welllllllllllllllllllll....

I would seriously doubt it. There are details missing from the original logo. Based on that I would be 99.99% sure that it is not an authentic piece...Salesman's sample would not hold water either.

Phony ashtrays are few and far between. The FS Cal-Neva seems to have become the poster child for phonies. They have now shown up in so many glass styles it is almost comical.

One reason it is a good pick is because of the cross collectibility. The Sinatra collectors are buying because it has Frank's name on it. Many don't care if it is phony or not.

Earlier on when the first phonies showed up I emailed one of the buyers and showed him why they were phony. He had bought two for about $150.00 apiece. He said they had a game room decorated in Rat Pack" theme and they were just for looks anyway.

If anyone is thinking af buying a FS Cal-Neva for their collection please contact me and I can send you pictures and etc to make sure it's the real deal.
