EK 1914 Best bavarians?

[Chris Boonzaier]

It is noticable that the bavarians have the best EK documents, not always but when there are fantastic, multi coloured heavy paper docs ... well, the bavarians take the cake.

I have a per theory... it is because they are catholic.

So... what the hell does that have to do with it?

Simply this... the Bavarian printing companies mass produce high quality confirmation and church related certificates... more so than any of the non catholic parts of germany. There was waaaay more need for decorative high quality documents... and when it came to EK docs, they were already set up for the trade.

Any thoughts on this ? :-)

I honestly don't know, but it sounds very reasonable to me.

Chris,

Absolutely makes sense. I think their art tradition also plays into this.
