Nice Deumer!!
A later made example (by Deumer standards) probably mid 60's, with glossier painted core, and narrower hingeblock!
Actually a scarce variant, as not only does it have a flatwire catch, unlike the normal Deumer roundwire, it is also mounted the opposite way round to normal, opening to the left, not the right!!
There must have been a small batch of these variants made, as this is the 3rd I have seen!!!
Case looks to be a wartime original or, at worst, an early postwar one, made with leftover wartime parts.
