Picked up this Babson Bro brochure off EBay. It looks great, and makes me concerned. Does anyone know if someone is or has made reproductions and is this what I have?I've attached pics.

The loose page you see is supposed to be loose by the looks of it and it is one sided.

Yes, this has been reproduced years ago, including two insert pages. Check the bottom of the inside back cover. The reproductions are marked as published by Allen Koenigsberg, printed by Stellar Productions. If it is marked as such it's a 1970s reprint.

EDIT to add: the reprint is still available for $9: http://phonobooks.com/PhonoBooks1.htm

Thank you so much. I am seeking a refund as we speak!

Sorry to hear you were burned, but eBay is good about protecting buyers. If the seller claimed it was original, and you can show it isn't, you will get your money back. Been there, done that. Alas. (In my case, breakage due to unbelievably poor packaging, not misrepresentation.)

Yeah, Allen (Allen Koenigsberg) made those decades ago in the 1970's and he still sells them. Hope that you did not pay $150 for one on Ebay when you can still get it for $9.00 through his website.
