    Unfortunately, the impossibly assembled backward core EKI on page 306 has been included again in the second edition. The caption is erroneous as it is based on a picture that was printed from a reversed negative. It would be impossible to solder the two frame halves together with the core reversed.
    You know, I was looking at that cross with the "backward core" last night and -- whether its core is backwards or the negative is -- the frame is a fake "Schinkel B" made postwar by Souval, as far as I can tell, like this one (the EK2 version):



    These "cores" are very very thin, two piece cores with low height to the swastika and date. Here's the back of one:



    I don't have my copy of the book in front of me, but I think this is the frame and core shown on that "backwards core" example. Can someone confirm?

    Thanks to WAF member grueni1208 for both pix.
    Best regards,
