Hi I was looking into buying/trading for a Disney auctions masterpiece Pluto howling pin. As I’ve started researching I can only find a few online, I’ve seen variations in the coloring specifically in two spots. I’ve circled them in one of the pictures. Does anyone know if these varied like this and all three are authentic?? All three of these are slightly different in the circled areas color wise.

Appreciate all the opinions and responses. I thought the backs looked good too but it’s hard with pictures. I know these are hand done fronts so I wasn’t sure if the color differences could be from small mistakes or since they were such low editions they would be more strict on all of them being exactly the same. I don’t know anyone with a true authentic example to compare to either just the few online I can find.
 
This is one of those times I wish I had a Time Machine. I think photos were posted once upon a time, but so many people used Photobucket to host things or AOL, and things were on the Dizpins forums vanished into nothing. And most things like this weren’t saved in the Internet Archive. These were so far above my price point I didn’t pay super close attention or save photos. I remember the tell for the Starry Night Tinker Bell, but that’s it.

Let me dig around. But I am on my way to FL, so I’m not sure how quickly I might find or not find something.
