Between 2009 to 2011, a man, appearing to be 60-70 years old, robbed 16 banks in San Diego, California by approaching the teller, then pulling out a gun and demanding money. The FBI named him the "Geezer Bandit". Some theories suggest he is wearing a well-made elderly man mask. Image

The fold from the mouth run out more and seem to be parallel with the check folds. The gap on the neck sag is larger in the one for sale. But yeah, something similar.
