    Hello

    Looking at what can be made out in the photo of the rears of the nine EK1s, it looks like you have some nice and interesting examples - although some closer in shots of the backs and fronts would help, and be of use/interest.

    From the larger photos, numbers 1 and 2 are, in my opinion, fakes. Number 3 looks like a good, original piece. As for the 1813 EK2, I don't enough about these to comment on.

    Regards
    David

          Regarding your No.3 cross... here's another example that I have. I haven't seen too many of these. When I posted mine for review, a few people thought it might be TR made but I would disagree as it shares no components with any TR EK1 makers. I believe it's from the 20's or 30's.

              Hello Sir,

              I tend to agree. The pin shapes are very similar. Is your cross silver marked?
              Cheers,

                Hello

                Based on the photos I can see why it might be thought of as being one the WW2 made 1914 EK1s, as the shape appears to be more akin to the TR EKs than to the 1914. That said, the hardware doesn't, to my knowledge, match up to any TR makers hardware. I suppose that it's just possible the frame is a very early TR EK shaped frame, with some earlier made rear hardware (?).

                Richard/Vince, what are the dimensions of your crosses?

                Regards
                David

                    It's marked 800 just above the catch.

                    Sorry, I don't have my calipers here to give measurements. Vince, I have no doubts on this cross of mine nor the example you showed.
