A little quiz on 'bird day'...

[Robert P.]

Pretty quiet around here this morning... Most of us rely on seeing the dates on crosses to identify their makers. See if you can identfy these from just the inner beading and swasi...

Right on every count. Actually #3 is a Zimmermann, but identical. #2 is a little tough, their frames are very much like S&L.

[Robert P.]

Nick

Not a Deumer either. Don't give up.
