Steve campbell Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Wow, never seen one like that before. The amount of quality crosses you have been showing is getting obscene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregM Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 (edited) That is a very nice and hard to find screwback. To the best of my knowledge--Godet was the only maker of that style. I have only seen 2 others like it before. Tony J ( Tiger1) has a beautifull cased example.Congrats on a super cross.

ekhunter Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 (edited) Very nice cross. See page 218 from The Iron Time. Edited July 8, 2007 by ekhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccj Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Very nice cross. See page 218 from The Iron Time.Is "The Iron Time" worth the money? I don't have a copy and haven't had a chance to view the book.BTW, super EK... how many do you have now? I saw your display in another thread and it looks as though you could use a few more. I need to find a few more examples for my tunics... real, but simple pin back types. In over 20+ years of collecting I have never convinced myself to buy a screwback. I have no idea why as I love the EKI. I only have around 10 now for display and tunics. I sold many because I thought I had too many. What the H*** was I thinking!

mario Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 This Cross was at Ebay a few days ago. I was the runner up, believe me, I was so upset. I am still upset but it is OK it went to you, I appreciate your knowledge on EK1s. I hope my turn is coming along Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Gaumann Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Is "The Iron Time" worth the money? I don't have a copy and haven't had a chance to view the book.I think it's the best book out there. Superb color photography.The first edition is slagged a bit because of a few fakes included as originals but I still give it (the 1st ed) 5 stars. 1st ed is now outta print but there's an updated, 2nd edition that I haven't seen. I'd imagine it's even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregM Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) Very nice Mike. I was high bidder on that cross with 23 seconds left.I really thought I had it but Mike and Mario beat me. That's life. I'll get the next one. Edited August 2, 2007 by gregM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
