Fake Griswold Rabbit

I keep looking for griswold molds in the wild... I assume the seller knew this wasn't a legitimate griswold by the way it was priced... and it was rusty inside and out... but I kind of wanted one to practice cleaning and eventually to compare to a real one.

it isn't a terrible copy... as noted in the books the 'I' in griswold and erie and the 3 are different than the 'real' ones... has some minor casting flaws on the outside and it had one big one on the inside in one of the front feet... the iron had actually clumped up in the foot and didn't flow all the way... so there is a hole in the bottom of the one foot... I took a little dremel with a cut off wheel to cut out some of the clog... it looks better than it did... but still an obvious flaw.
