Hi Mathijs...Great group, and thanks for taking the time to post more pics...it was worth it!!!
All the 57ers look to be S&L's, all seem to be around the mid 60's, or just after?
The BVK is the 2nd class, without checking I don't know for sure if S&L was also the maker for that, probably, its a slightly later piece, with the pebbled reverse and raised edge, the earliest were completely flat on the reverse!!
The medalbar, for me, is Sedlatzek, not so much because of the blue and white ribbons used underneath, though a few I have seen do have that, it has the other Sedlatzek features...red backing cloth, glued not sewn, sawtooth bottom edge to the cloth, and typical hardware, including the pin with distinctive end, filed to a point and flat catch.
The ribbons themselves are always folded and arranged in a way pretty much unique to Sedlatzek too!!
The earlier Sedlatzek bars had a retailers name glued to the backing cloth, but these are sometimes lost, traces of where they once were can often be seen!
Later bars didn't seem to have the retailers label, but still retain all the other features!!!
Very Nice!!!!!
