Damascus,
Good information and requires me to be a bit more specific on my original post. The 'authenticity' I was referring to was whether the 'seller's labels' were indeed an authentic copy of an original label or something made up. Almost all authentic originals and copies of authentic labels I have seen have an embossment, an ornamentation of cups, lions, medals, etc along with the lettering and lines. Many of what I suspect to be fakes are made up labels with only lines and lettering that being somewhat familiar with Photoshop and Illustrator I can easily replicate or produce another that is similar but has more flourishments and with which I might dupe the unknowing. ( I am not suggesting Galazan or the seller on Ebay are trying to dupe people to think these maybe copies of original labels. Just saying that the simplicity I see in some labels is easily reproduceable.)
