Unknown RK Maker

[Dietrich Maerz]

Genlemen,

who could be the "unknown" maker of this cross?

Thanks,

Dietrich

Wovon kommt dieses Bild?

[Dietrich Maerz]

Sag ich (noch) nicht!

Dietrich

P.S.: Seit wann sprichst Du Deutsch?

[Harry]

You are kidding, right??

[Dietrich Maerz]

I'm not kidding, maybe somebody else...

Dietrich

P.S.: Did you get my PM, Harry?

Hmmmm. Tough one. Rounded corners but not a rounder and with that tic tac toe tell tale Juncker cross hatch.

[Dietrich Maerz]

Doesn't it have the other "tell tale" sign of a Juncker also - I mean the "not to be spoken one"?



Dietrich

[Brian S]

Without looking too hard, yes. Me tired, pass MCSE today...

[Dietrich Maerz]

So, if not all the people looking at this thread would suspect a trick question from me, would it not be clear that this is a Juncker?

Dietrich

[Brian S]

Nope, it's still a Juncker. Dies go boom in war.

You started working on those 200 RK photos I sent you yet?

[Dietrich Maerz]

I found some interesting pictures, yes. But it's a monumental task but I have lot's of time coming up!

Now back to this one:

Could it be that somebody really intended to show an unknown manufacturer with inner round corners and was by coincidence grabbing a 'rounded' Juncker. Something that happened to me also when I did the Rounder quilt. Could that be? I'm of course theorizing heavilly here!

Hello Dietrich
Maybe this one also help you

[Dietrich Maerz]

It's either a Juncker or an 'unknown' maker.., no, it's a Juncker!

WOUW Dietrich you got eagle-eyes

Okay, let's solve the puzzle.

Please refer to page 490 of Detlev's new cataloge. This is were this picture is taken from and it is marked as an "unknown" manufacturer but it is clearly a Juncker.
We all know that Detlev knows how a Juncker looks and for sure it was intended to put a different picture there. Since he touches base on all the other known manufacturers including the 3/4 ring the question arises: "What pictures should be there for the 'unknown' manufacturer"?

Since Gordon Williamson was working on this book also, I have my suspicions..
