Be sure to get a 3-5 day non-firing inspection period if you buy it. Given that prior owners have had doubts about the originality of the finish, that is not too much to ask. And if you are ready with a camera and the knowledge to use it we will try to give it the benefit of our experience so you can either send it back OR be comforatble in your purchase. But like Marc said giving opinions from photos can be an uncertain business.
Where are you located? There may be an experienced collector in your area that you could show it to.
Regarding Davis' book, I use it too but it is not Gospel and it is not popular here.
