Good evening Robert. Those of us who know you understand that there isn't a single item in your collection that would fall into the "Just one more" catagory. This Carl Poellath is yet another outstanding piece. Thank you for showing it.

Best regards,
Stu

Thank Stu,

I just got in this outstanding case from another fellow Canadian, Gary in Ontario. The cross dropped in like the case was made for it, a perfect fit.

Thanks,
Robert

Congrats Robert with a nice cross. The mm 84's are between my favourites too, nice design and good quality.

Wonder if they ever made a zinc cross? They all look like tombac....

Hi Frank!

You know, I don't have an answer on that. I've never seen a zinc example. Like you, just the tombak. Yes, they are nice. They put some extra thought into making the pin stay under pressure in the catch with that added spring up under the pin by the hinge.
