Strange eBay full mask - Anyone care to venture a guess?
Stumbled upon THIS recently
The makers mark on the back declares it to be Morrison of Edinburgh.
Their version of which can be seen below

The eBay one appears to be either badly repaired (look at the top stitching in the pic of the rear of the sporran), or that a mask was badly applied to another sporran entirely.
The fur is bizarre also, it's either in dreadful need of a good cleaning, or is, in fact, a nappy old teddy bear. If real, I think another question arises, which is, WHAT is the fur from? My best guess from the shape of the head and ear-to-eye placement is Nutria, which then has the nose 'tucked' under, but I'm not a taxonomic expert, and would love to be corrected if I'm wrong. Anyone?
It seems that John Morrison Co. is now a division of Gold Brothers.
