| "When I did finally look at them together, the degree of design overlap was striking. Here are two totally different manufacturers, making two pieces concurrently, and a fairly clear case of design imitation. The facial expressions are almost identical, the "bow" shape of the hair on top is unmistakable, and the overall shape of the piece is very similar. The Pryor Novelty pin incorporates several flowers into the design, but is otherwise an almost exact copy of the Kerr piece." |
