Here is an earlier version of this fake Auxiliary Cruiser. Yours is improved - artificialy aged and area between the sail and the boat was cut out but still 'one looker'.
Cheers,
Hubert

Good eye, Hubert!  Isn't it interesting how much they've tried to improve the look with the sail cutout and smoothing out the flaws in the reverse. Sneaky buggers, but like you say, still unmistakeable.
Best regards,
---Norm
