EKII with blue cellophane envelope

[Brian L.]

I got this EKII awhile ago and when it arrived, it had this blue cellophane envelope with it, as an added bonus.

It's not like the usual blue wrapper that EKs were shipped with, as it is folded and glued like an envelope.

The seller of the cross told me that it has always been with the cross. Since he just gave it to me, I'm assuming it is correct.

The cross is marked 'KM''. But, the envelope has no printing on it.

I'm likely going to put this on eStand and would like some opinions of the envelope, before I do so.

Has anyone every seen the wrapper as an envelope before?

Hi
Have a couple of these that came with Hindenburg Crosses. Not sure though what they originated with.

Interesting cross -- not the core we usually see with KMST but a very common core used by almost every maker.

nice wide frame KM

indeed a nice variation of the core .

its impossible to know all variations of the ek2 1914....

makes the hobby endlessly surprising every time ...

congratulations on this one.
