Unusual EK I

[HuD]

Hello everyone, i have this EK I since a very long time and it's a kind of unusual for me. I think the frame was supposed to be an EK II (possibly in WWI?) and then re-used for an EK I. Numbers are quite big but with a thin design and there are no marks, the core is magnetic.
The pin is really narrow and the whole structure looks like silvered brass.
Any idea on the maker or any info about this particular construction?
Thanks a lot,
Stefano

IMO not original !

Looks like Souval post war EK1 with Ek2 frame ;-(

wow what a strange mix of parts... even the core in your opinion?
The paint looks so good...

Hi HuD,

Take a look at this thread:

and this one:

Seems like a match to me?

I am new on the forum and i didn't had the chance to see the other threads before, well i have to say thanks for such info.

I too think the front "plate" is from EK2 and married post war.... maybe for the demanding souvenier marked after `45....
