    1. really shouldn't be much of a surprise... today being 14 july - Bastille day - i asked 15 consecutive patients what it celebrated. one of them was close with "Canadian Independence day".... joe
    2. i read in our local paper this morning that john demjanjuk, while cleared of activity at treblinka, has been charged with involvement in the deaths of 29,700 inmates at sobibor. it has been about 2 months since his deportation, and german authorities, based on new photographic documents of him were quick to charge him. i'd be interested to hear if anyone knows anything more. thanks. joe
    3. thank you, uwe. i learn something new everyday! nice examples, as well. joe
    4. from a structural standpoint, wouldn't pure silver be rather impractical and soft? joe
    5. seems like an extremely plausible explanation... i'm surprised he survived 5.5 years... joe, MD
    6. re: the imperial WB's yes they did, eric, and even smaller ones, not to mention a multitude of sizes in stickpins. can't really comment on the '39ers, but this setup is very reminiscent of the imperial and interwar production. yours is a nice one! joe
    7. i love this cross! while i like thin, delicate frames, this wide frame along with the character of the core makes this a winner. welcome on my wall anytime! joe
    8. i bet it was more than two cents.... very nice pickup!! joe
    9. ulster nailed it: always a most interesting read! these men deserve the recognition you facilitate. are you on the mend? hope so! joe
    10. i actually have a few pieces that i bought when i had relatively more money than brains which are mounted - and labelled repro - to remind me that sometimes it is a pretty close call. take the lesson and learn from it! joe
    11. Joe, I haven't heard the term "slag" used in years... i'm just a coalminers daughter... joe
    12. i agree with jim. this "version" has the remnant slag in each of the corners on the inside of the frame, and the frame itself has nothing of the delicate appearance that makes the schinkels so beautiful. joe
    13. i agree with jim. this "version" has the remnant slag in each of the corners on the inside of the frame, and the frame itself has nothing of the delicate appearance that makes the schinkels so beautiful. joe
    14. a most impressive collection! my favorite is also herr fey, as i've seen that picture so often and now know who it is. thanks! joe
    15. thanks for the picture naxos! i have one very similar to ksg's, and have never seen anything as close to "provenance" as it with an EK doc to a woman..... joe
    16. i've been waiting to see this EK/ribbon setup for YEARS!!! is someone willing to declare this the accepted or usual configuration for awarding to a female?? expectantly yours, joe
    17. Rex doesn't sell original anything. ALL of his wares are reproduction, and i've not known him to attempt to beguile or mislead. i think he will listen to your concerns, but i'm not concerned with where his heart is. joe
    18. no apology necessary re: your translation. very readable and your effort appreciated! joe
    19. i think at least one explanation rests in using parts from manufacturer A and manufacturer B.... use what you have rather than make a whole new run of cores, frames, and even suspension rings.... joe
    20. it's cheaper.... she MUST have been broke to alter an EK 1.
    21. beautiful cross in a beautiful jewelers' case, eric! these reflect the times when pride, craftsmanship, and good ole' capitalism resulted in some real gems!!! joe
    22. can you imagine the suffering she saw.... great picture, Naxos, and thanks for the translation. joe
    23. i'd love to be able to catalogue the ever-growing number of stamps such as these in unusual locations.... i remember seeing my first square box stamp and not being able to get much of an answer as to its' source... joe
    24. i would keep this even with an upgrade so that you could display both front and back and the MM. i actually LIKE the character of this one a great deal!! joe
