Re: 1940 "Black Widow"
The Repro BW grips I have seen would not fool the "blind pig finding an acorn"! The checkering actually appears to have been done by the "blind pig"! Seriously, the ones I have seen were NOT shiney, and the checkering was the worst I have ever seen. The points were not correct, the line spacing was bad and overrun each other, etc.
I am sure someone will come up with a nice set of repros soon and then it will be difficult to tell them apart from the original. Just keep an eye out for them.
