There is a Contortionist on ebay right now, that the seller is claiming is OG. Yet it is in a reissue colorway and is missing the Vex Cav logo.
Others have shown up on this site claiming to be OG but are also missing the Vex Cav logo.
I am just curious as to what the experts say.
Is it OG if it ONLY has the logo? Or were some of the OG issued without the logo?
Please excuse my ignorance and thank you for the help!

| If it's the Orange/Red one from Oz, it definitely has old spacing on the truck holes. I know the first Vision/SS reissues had old truck spacing, but the newer ones do not. Was the Lee Ralph reissued back around '06, or is it only a recent release? |

The one that's in shrink with the sticker?
I've been wrong before...but, that would make me think reissue.
I'm no Vision head by any means though.
It would be really cool to have an online database of distributor catalogs. |

^^ Yes, that one.
I wrote him and told him it was a reissue. Then I started thinking of the ones I've seen on here missing the Vex Cav logo claiming to be OG, so curiosity got the best of me and.....here we are  |

BKB did pick up one without the logo with very similar colors to the reissue, except the "Vision Lee Ralph Model" was in yellow rather than blue like the reissue.
But then an actual reissue (blue and gray) advertised as OG came on ebay and sold for pretty good money. I think I posted in the "Auctions of Interest" where there was still some doubt if I remember correctly |
