57 First Pattern RK?

[ckkyt003]

Hello Gents

May I have your opinions on this RK please? Is it original and which period dose it belong to?

Any advice about its approximate price?

Thanks in advance.

S&l

Looks like a good early S&L.

Well, you have there a wonderful and very early B-frame S&L 1st pattern RK
That one is , from what we know till now, from the earliest period in the 50s.

Hard to talk about a price, on one side we don´t want to rise up the prices, on the other side we don´t want to give wrong infos
Is that one attributed? Is the case an early one too? Does it comes with a ribbon?
All these points are important to talk about a price.

Complete incl. case and ribbon IMO 650€ - 750€ (more a dealers price)

If attributed, put on 100€ - 200€, depending on who was the recipient.

I would agree with Rüdiger ... I can see the "knee flaw" for the B frame in one picture ...

Pricewize, I believe he is also spot on ... 650 - 750 €.

Do send me PM in case you dont want to buy it .

Hi BJ!!
Not much to add, the guys have already summed it up well, and the prices mentioned are what you would expect to pay, i could see some dealers asking even more!!
A beautiful early S & L 1st pattern, and cased too, does'nt get much better!!!!

This is weird, I see pictures in all threads, but don't see any pictures here?
Maybe I have some software problems.

Looking at the comments it must be a very nice and early RK, to bad I can't see it.
So congrats on this nice RK

Although I personally wouldn't pay an euro extra if something is attributed unless it comes with solid provenance.
IMO too many items have a made up provenance because it seems to sell easier.
I already have seen that some sellers sell more than one of the same item that is told to be from to the same person.

Strange, yesterday they were still visible for me

[Matthieu]

Yep, pix are gone, but it was a nice early B Frame S&L .... trust me ....
