Search for Juncker and W&L on the Forum and you will see many examples like this.

It looks like a good, original Juncker.

IMO, it's a Juncker frame with a W&L core = short '1', tall '3'.

The FRAME looks like a W&L (the "scrunched" beading at the junction of the 12 and 3 o'clock arms, the beading row on the top arm of the cross, as well as the hump, identify it as a W&L frame, IMHO.

You're quite right about those points and they are all present but when you couple those with the cross hatching and the additional Juncker die flaws you have a Juncker frame.

I fully agree with Adrian. He's rock solid on his description.

Ah, I hadn't noticed the other flaws and the cross-hatching. I stand corrected.
