the things that looked odd to me are: the magnet finish is smooth, unlike any i've seen before. i guess these could be a refinish and a rebadge and a recone we're seeing here. i've never seen an ink printed serial on that badge type before. the cork looks brand new, and cork loses that bright look after some years. part of the basket looks painted over.
if it's genuine, i would venture to say it's a total restoration with the magnet and basket assembly being the only remaining original parts.
without seeing it person though, i would say it's nealy impossible to say for certain. the small thumbnails in the thread aren't enough to go on.
i've attached a pic i took ten years ago when i opened my C40 cabinets for the first time. Digital cameras are a lot better now, so the detail is a bit lacking..
again, i'm not insisting these one's of bob's are not real, but only they looked different enough to warrant discussion.
