Nice pull on the auction reference rat, otherwise from the fuzzy photos at least, it looks like an original.
I suppose the obvious conclusion is that someone has cut the print down in order to remove all of the typeset printed information.
Whether it was done to make it look like an original, or perhaps to remove some type of damage is impossible to say, but considering that the cropping of the signature coincides with the uppermost typeset printed information which was a copyright mark and the initials K.A.S. (Kwo Art Studio), I am leaning towards the former.
I'm curious if cutting it down and removing the printed artist information has reduced the value of the print? Probably not, it is still a nice cat print and people love their cat art.
Cheers, and great detective work rat.
