My New Zimmerman RK

[Jeff Nichols]

Hello To All! The mailman was good to me the other day! I coulnot refrain from buying this piece any longer. It's far from mint, but it has a lot of character and being from a very rare RK maker. Loop for ribbon is unmarked and looks a little larger than most but to me looks original to the piece. The ribbon is original but not original to this RK. For the condition of this piece the price was right and once I recieved it it appealed to me more in person than in the pics that were sent to me. I guess pics do not always do a piece justice! Anyway, here are the pics I took,Enjoy....Cheers....Jeff

Congratulation to a genuine RK. Try to clean the rust away from the loop.

Cheers.

I had my eye on that one too. You did good!

[Dave Kane]

Very nice Jeff! Nothing wrong with that loop.....

[Kevin V.]

Nice and rare maker KC, with a lot of character.

[Harry]

Very nice, and a steal at the price. Loop is correctly unmarked for a '20' marked cross

I think everyone was mulling that piece over. The core is certainly in rough shape, but examples of any condition zimmerman RKs do not come up very often. That is one of those pieces that when it is gone, you kind of say, "damn, I probably should have grabbed that".

Great acquisition Jeff

The chances of ever finding another Zimm is remote at best.
