    Thanks Eric. I added this maker. You may have to "refresh" your browser to see the change. http://www.kaisersbunker.com/stuff/1914_EK1_makers.htm

        I think you guys are right. Mike K. originally pointed this out to me. I took another look at it tonight - flashlight and loupe 'cause the mark is so small. I'd have to say it looks like "We".

        Thanks,
        Brian

            wilm

            Nothing more to add to your list, although the manufacturer 'WILM' was (to the best of my knowledge) a Berlin based firm until after WW2, when they transfered to Hamburg.

            Removes an 'unknown' at least

              It seems you are right. Here is a link to a one-page history of a well-known silver-smith jeweler in Berlin, named "Wilm". Tony

                  "In the 19th and 20th centuries the company was responsible for the design of most major military decorations and insignia, including the marshal's batons in both World Wars, the Golden Oak Leaves with Diamonds of the Knight's Cross, the »Pour le Mérite« medal for special achievement in the arts and sciences and the most coveted award in the German television industry, the »Golden Camera«.

                    Once again, nice work Tony We all benefit.

                    I just don't think it's humane to make the Kaiser work so hard on all this, poor little guy

                      Another DRGM

                      Here's another maker for you, Tony: a screwback marked D.R.G.M. 650006 by M. Hansen (city unknown). Silver content is .938 and marked with a CROWN and half moon. For a nice image you can check page 193 of Previtera's book. Funny how EK1's
                      that have taboo markings seem perfectly OK, yet badges with the same markings are suspect. On this forum, anyway.

                        OK, thank you for the correction Eric, I searched for any concerns about other awards made by "Hansen" and could not find them. (?) But everyone seemed to salivate over the Hansen EK1 that Hannibal posted a while back. Incidentally, this posting is partially to blame for my new interest in EK1.

                        I added "M. Hansen D.R.G.M. 650006" to the list, as well as "Deschler & Sohn" as an EK1 has surfaced with this marking. Does anyone have any others to add? Here is the link again. Thanx, Tony

                              Corrected and updated.

                              Two updates to this list. I have added "DEUTSCHER OFFIZIERSVEREIN" and thanks to Herrn Stahlhut I have corrected "Friedrich Sedlatzek" to the correct stamp of "Fr Sedlatzek". Any more? Tony
