Hi guys
here's 2 new 'uns.
both nice and very differnet finishes. We have a tombak one with nice frosting, which seems to be a rare (in a rare world!) unmarked 55 J.E. Hammer & Sohne!
and a zinc L/18. Silver wash almost completely gone, but I still love her! what do you think?
anyone out there with a matching '55'?
all the best
jon

Hello Jon

Very nice duo The one with the frosting and siver finish is excellent, as is the zinc one, even though the siver coating has long since gone.

Congratulations one two nice finds.

Regards
David

Why do you think that it's a J.E. Hammer & Sohne? Can you show us a marked one?

[tinmantis]

actually George I thought YOU had one! There was one shown here a few years back I think, marked 55 (but no pic of mark)
here it is:
maybe it isn't one?
