How do I know if I have a Longeberger basket?

I got a basket at a thrift sale. Yesterday my stepdaughter was over and told me her mother in law sells Longeberger baskets, and she said the basket my gift came in looks like one of theirs. I browsed their on line catalog and didn't see that basket in their current line, but it could have been discontinued. Is there any way to tell? Is there some kind of mark on the basket that would let me know?

Most of the time they will be marked on the bottom. Mine says, Longaberger Baskets HANDWOVEN Dresden OHIO USA then usually they will have a signature close to that and the year it was made
