Just spotted this one on eBay. I have never seen one with the cord exit in front or the transmitter tag on top?

I surmised as much but it is the first time I have seen that. I did not know you could put the base on backwards.

It is the transmitter that is on backwards (and upside down).

The mouthpiece in a reproduction - is the perch a reproduction as well? I can't see it well enough.
