It seems like the real top. I don't see why it wouldn't be.

Well, in Canadian $$, it's 155$. Canadian and Us are pretty equal recently so...
I'm curious how it could cost to ship it oversea... I might be interested by this job!

If the year (1950) is correct that does not look like the original top. Those guitars came standard with a sunburst finish until 1954. In 1954 a natural top was available and in 1956 they changed the name of the natural top versions to Country-Western. Looking at the photos of the guitar including the back and sides which also would have been tinted in 1950, it doesn't look like that's the correct year.
