EK 1939 Oakleave Maker

[repadilla]

Hello All Can any one tell me who the official makers of the knights cross oakleaves would have been? Was C.E. Juncker one of the makers? Thanks, Repadilla

While there were several producers susch as S&L, Juncker, Godet, etc as far as I know only Godet was the official producer.

Hello Rich, Does that mean that any body but Godet, were making jewlers copies? Thank you for the reply. Regards, Repadilla

On a side note, I believe that Godet were the ONLY official oaks and Swords manufacturers, not even S & L were given wartime offical sanction, just for the okas, seems a little puzzling as to why they were'nt given the swords also.

perhaps I could be corrected if wrong.

This is interesting, that Godet was the only one sanctioned to make the O.L.And Swords. However, could other makers make the basic oakleaves? I have seen pictures of the backs of supposed period oakleaves, with different makers stampings. Very curious! Regards, Repadilla
