Steve campbell Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Here's the final Imperial EK from my last spree. It's another favorite of mine, an AWS pillowback. It's an unmarked version and a screwback to boot. The only problem is the missing washer on the back. Oh well. It's still a nice piece that doesn't come around everyday. The frame appears to be made of a material other than silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve campbell Posted October 13, 2007 Author Share Posted October 13, 2007 Here's the rear that shows the variation that gives this cross it's name. Like I said, the backing washer is missing, which is too bad. I still like it. This cross is of a larger demension than a standard Imperial EK.

Steve campbell Posted October 14, 2007 Author Share Posted October 14, 2007 Thanks! I was happy to add this one to my collection. This is my second AWS screwback, but my first pillowback. The washer would have made it complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorhead Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I haven't seen too many of them,just a hand full the last few years.

MichaTrue, if the washer hasn't aged like the cross, it may not look right. I'm going to put my other washer on there just for a look, but I doubt it will look right. And then my other one has no washer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
