Hi Jon, looks like a superb reference book .. not seen one of those before ... thank you for showing the good old SKET entries ....
you should see the state of the old SKET factory in Magdeburg now ...

Jon,

Great book for the reference material you are interested in. A question, on the fly leaf of the book is a double M symbol. What does that stand for? I have seen it in relation to the DDR before.

Regards,

Gordon

Gordon, that is the symbol of the Leipziger Messe trade fair and the book was published by the Leipziger Messe as a directory of the DDR manufacturers for visitors to that trade fair. Cheers, Torsten.

Torstenbel,

Thanks for refreshing my memory. I knew that information once but couldn't think of it today.

Cheers,
