Steve campbell Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 This arrived today. It's an EK1 marked L/50 on the rear for Godet. It's not exactly mint with some loss of paint to the core. Doesn't look as bad in hand. How hard is this maker to come across? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve campbell Posted July 9, 2007 Author Share Posted July 9, 2007 Here's the rear. The pin is a little bent. Again, not perfect, but I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorhead Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Steve,that's a fine cross-pinback L/50s don't grow on trees(the same for the screwbacks) and so you have made a big step forwards in collecting all EKs..... Full score!Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve campbell Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 Thanks Micha. I was there just as it popped up for sale and it was a decent price too. Snagged it with a single parade mount EK2 for a good deal also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nesredep Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 HiNice find EK1,Godet L/50.Congratulations. Nesredep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve campbell Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 I'm new to this game so when I saw it pop up for a fair price I first checked the chart to see who L/50 was. When I saw it was Godet I had to have it. I have a Godet EK2 1914 and it's beautiful, so I felt this would be a good addition. These comments only help me feel good about the decision. Thanks.
