Steve campbell Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I've had this cross for a few months now and am wondering about the set up on the rear and the cross in general. I've never seen one quite like it. This cross has Third Reich demensions. What does everyone think? Is it OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe campbell Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 i like the cross!i think it has been repaired at some point,and would consider it an appropriate andwell done repair.the pin almost appears TR, and the catcha jeweller-made affair.very nice!JMHOjoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve campbell Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 Thanks. You may be right on the repair. It's done well. Do you think the hardware of the catch is original? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Garvy Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Perhaps not original to the piece, but there is really no way of telling exactly when the repair my esteemed colleague has rightly observed was, in fact, made. The pin and catch, as well as its shape, certainly appear to indicate Third Reich period manufacture. I am quite fond of these interesting hybrids, and have a few in my collection.

Steve campbell Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 Well that's good to hear. Sometimes you never know. This was my first Imperial EK1. I also have another Tr era piece made of all brass, one piece, and a really nice KO marked cross. Thanks for the input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
