Uncategorised German Patent for bicycle and motorcycle pedals

[fackerman64]

I inherited some interesting medals, photos and documents from my grandfather after his passing recently. Karl Zipp was a patent attorney by profession in Bad Vilbel, Germany. The document in question is a patent of a pedal design for bicycles and motorcycles. He had told me that at the time, the Wehrmacht was looking at equiping troops with bicycles and using the same pedal design for motorcycles in the Kraftrad recon divisions. Can anyone tell me where I might have it appraised? See my album for better images (fackerman64).
