EK 1 - marker ? Painted ?

[Schuasta]

I got this EK 1 today - i think its over-painted ? Who can tell me the marker ? Souval ?

[Stu W]

Does not look like a Souval to me and does appear to have been repainted.

Regards,
Stu

It's an S&L I think.

The black on the frame is some kind of oxidation, it has to do with the frosting.
Not unusual on S&L crosses, you can even find it on their KC's sometimes.

Possible a after War Souval ?

[ben bijker]

Do you have a pic of the reverse?
The pin might give a vlue about the maker
I don't see a souval...

I agree...& IMO repainted reverse will give more info

[Schuasta]

Here the reverse

Postwar S&L in my opinion.

[Tony T-S]

Which would make it a not very common very interesting pre 57er version. You could post this on the 57er forum for the guys to have a look at as well.

Postwar S&L in my opinion.

Yes, I agree
That is why it's important to post pics of the reverse as well...

not war time back side,IMO postwar S&L

[Thomas Durante]

I can only agree, postwar. The hardware on this one is classic postwar S&L.

The black color on the reverse looks like rust remover..

[Schuasta]
