I was making a display box for my Mills P-75 and was wondering how do you prove a Mills is genuine and not one of the many replicas.
My Mills has a serial number over the right beam mount.
Both my genuine Mills .75 have the words "Mills England" embossed on the cast backplate. This and the serial numbers on the lugs is my final test. The initial one is the look of the magnesium crankcase. These are like yours usually slightly corroded.
