Tyler & Blitz

As always: it´s a question of money.
Everything has it´s price...
What are you gentlemen looking for?

[Tyler Ramsey]

Hehehe, sorry I dont have the money to buy a RK

[Blitz]

Well, i have the money to buy ONE KC, but then i would not have money for anything else. I'm still sticking to the minor-league stuff

[Blitz]

Here is the 1957 made EK1 1914. Note the small circle on the lower part of the frame. They used the upper frames for the 2. class too and this is the point were the loop was soldered.

This cross here is an early example with real iron core.

[JensF.]

The pinback is the same used on early 1957 made EK1 1939.
