Round 3 EK

[streptile]

I picked this one up earlier this year as an upgrade.

Two theories have been advanced about the maker -- Deschler 1 or Boerger 22. I'm not sure -- I think it's neither one, but rather remains unknown.

Thanks for looking .

Trevor, beautiful cross, mine has a bit of rust on it and is also unknown and I think it is the same maker as yours. Jim

Hi Trevor!
That cross is a stunner & whoever the maker it's gorgeous!!
I don't have any round 3's yet, but that one I would add in a NY second!!
Thanks for sharing!!

Man Trev, That is a cross that speaks! Probably the mintest of this type I have seen with Jims being another example that speaks "Been there!"
very familiar hinge and pin set up! it sure would be nice if you can pin down a maker!
Best of luck!

Familiar as I said? This looks like a close match for pin, hinge and catch with hinge mounted higher on the cross? my hinge pin sticks out a bit more though?
Regards!

I would say Boerger, because it does not match to Deschler

Thanks, guys.

I also does not match marked Boergers.

Very very nice, Trevor. This pin and hinge look very much like a Weidmann I own. But, of course, not the same maker.

Thanks Robert.

Yes, this pin system was used by a few makers, including some Deumers with 1914 cores. Because of this fact, it makes it tough to pinpoint a maker from the pin alone. I bet Kevin's is a Weidmann as well.

Yep.. Indeed it's a Wiedmann!
So I wonder if any member would know which Makers used this pin/hinge set on TR EKI's? I would have to think it is a postage stamp size list!
Perhaps when the new book (or Book's) are published, some information such as this will come to the surface? I really would be excited if so... however am not holding my breath!

A beautiful cross ... really beautiful .. and rare (also in these conditions).

[streptile]

Thanks for the nice comments, guys. I'm happy with this beauty, too.

Thanks Ben.

What do you think about the famous 22 marked example?
