Just got to show off my new Fritz Zimmermann

[Robert P.]

I just received this beauty in the mail today along with a full length of ribbon. Look at the perfect beading as it comes down to crowd the swastika with four sharp points! The finish work on this piece just couldn't be any better. The beading is just so semetrically layed out. Time has given the frame a beautifil even patina. What a masterpiece. Yeah, it's gaining my favor, and nearly pushing me away from my 65's and other favorites. Look how perfectly the inside corners are cut.

Very nice example! Textbook piece!

The paint on the core reminds me of the black crinkle finish on the old 60's/70's 426 Hemi valve covers

That's one beautiful EKII! A beautiful addition to your collection. Congrats

[Robert P.]

Thank you,

Now I've got only 117 to go to make a complete collection of EKII's. I'm really pleased with this EK. It came with a blue period packet, an 11 1/2" ribbon and the waxpaper envelope.

Always looking for the '27' and '138'.

Good job, Fritz Zimmermann is my favorite maker of the EK.

When one sees a Fritz Zimmermann, their is no doubt who the maker is. I personally don't like the fat ugly beading of this maker and would recommend to anyone that has one of these ugly beast to place it on the E-Stand immediately. Only, please PM me before doing so. Thanks!

Yeah, right. Makes me want to hunt for it's brother, the EKI.

I've always been curious about whether or not the soldiers who received these awards really cared about the makers like we do. I'll bet some did.

Hello

A very nice cross, and as you say, beautifully crafted. I bet this one wasn't made on a Friday afternoon
