It looks authentic to me as far as a 67 or 68, however the Ventures part of the Mosrite logo was added on as it was not available in 67 and later. As you can see it is super close to the Mosrite logo which was more centered after they dropped the Ventures model portion of the logo.There should be more space between the two. Also, this color was something they did later as well. It is a real Mosrite Mark 1, but after the Ventures association. I screened the Ventures logo on one of these myself for a friend. This could be it. He sold it several years ago. You would be able to tell with a black light comparing the headstock finish to the rest of the neck.
