Comparing frames on 1870 Godet Wideframe

[Roglebk]

This is a compilation of 3 crosses. A 'Type A core' mm Godet EKI (belongs to Kay), a 'Type B core' mm Godet EKI (Biro/Marshall) and a unmarked 'Type A core' EKII. Different wear, rotated frames in assembly and somewhat bad pics makes it hard.

What do you think, are they a match?

Hard to be 100%, but at first glance they look pretty close.

How do you think they compare to this one?

Carl,
Which cross is the one in the upper left corner of your group picture?
I think the corners compare fairly closely to the one I posted.

Anyone agree or disagree?

Great job comparing and rotating those frames, Carl. I think they all match. Greg, I'm not so sure about yours.

Greg, your cross seems not to match any of the others, esp the lower right corner differs too much imo.

Kay, outer corners are worn and look so alike on my cross it will be hard to draw conclusions from them. Can not find the small die crack flaws that is found on yours in post 8. Will make a compilation pic later.

Edit: There could be a die crack flaw on the reverse frame, 10 'o clock corner, it's a bit worn though. Will get pics later.
