Interested in good photos of hinges and pins of 1957 crosses. KVK, DKG and EK. Early and late.

Thanks.

Hinge and pin from a 1957 EK 1 I got in Germany in 1972.

Hinge and pin from an EK 1 that I purchased directly from Steinhauer & Luck in 2002.

Hinge and pin on a 1957 EK 1/Spange combo. I got this from a dealer and have no idea when it was made.

Pin and hinge on a 1957 KVK 1 with swords. Again, this piece was purchased from a dealer so I have no idea when it was made.

Pin and hinge on another 1957 KVK 1 with swords. This one was made fairly recently. In fact, the badge is simply the Second Class award with the ribbon ring taken off and a pin and catch assembly attached to the back!

Hinge and pin on a 1957 DKiS allegedly made by S&L.

Here is a photo from Grant Broadhurst. It shows the back of a 1957 L/11.
That setup must be very early.

Cheers.

Peter,

Any chance of a pic of the front of that L/11?
