      Thanks for the extra pic. If you have time please make a pic of the reverse.
      It 's a nice EKII for me and I think it 's a Brehmer.

          thank you very much, it 's not a common cross, I believe it 's a Brehmer but not completely sure.

            I guess I could have cleaned it up a bit.
            DON'T do that. Leave as is.

              The EK2 is an extremely rare early B.H. Mayer. I know this core in early B.H. Mayers with their interwar frames and this is their standard ("L/18"), later, WWII-era frame.

                You could clean up the core but don't touch the frames, they are stunning.

                  There are no markings on the ring or anywhere else.

                  Does that matter?

                    Guys,

                    I took a very slightly damp Q-tip and dusted the two off.

                    They look not quite as dirty. The patina on the frame is untouched.

                    Thank you everyone for offering great information and good advice.

                    M

                    PS. I'll post some new pics soon.

                      Hi Trevor,
                      just to understand clearly, have you seen this core and frame in other EKIIs or have you seen this date and frame in Mayer EKIs ?

                        Hi Fabri,

                        I have seen this core and frame on Mayer EK1s, and the frame also on Mayer EK2s. I'm not sure I've ever seen this core on another EK2, but I'm sure they exist.
                        Best regards,
