greg.hays Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Hi all, this is my first post in this forum and I figured I would post these in case anyone else likes them. These are my favorite EK II, not sure why because they do not tend to hold there finish and rust is usually always present on the core. But to me they look a little beefier because of the wide frame.
greg.hays Posted January 28, 2006 Author Posted January 28, 2006 Here is a second one in a little better shape complete with ribbon.
greg.hays Posted January 28, 2006 Author Posted January 28, 2006 Here is the reverse. If anyone else has some of these I'd love to see it .
joe campbell Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 greg-i agree! the wide frame 1939 ismy favorite of the 1939 issue.i also like the other extreme, the verynarrow frame 1813 EK 2's.thanks for the pictures.joe
