Hi there, I have recently found these in my late fathers extremely hoarded house.  I hear there are fakes around and don’t know if I can sell these as legitimate or not.  The green one was very hoarded and hard to get to, so maybe more legitimate than the yellow which was quite easy to find!  I have worked my way through a forty foot container so I’m hoping for some good news! Thank you ps there is no marking on the bottom of either of them. Ty

There are a couple of ways to tell if they are real or not and the easiest is to look for a slightly raised 'seam' down the handle. The fakes don't have this seam, but the real ones do.
Good luck !!!
