It's a good Souval....but I'm not sure if it's one of the ones considered "wartime" or "post-war".

Good to know that it is a Souval but the big question is, is it post or pre-war ?
Is there any definite ways that we can tell ?

My monitor isn't showing a dipping 3. Is it so? Certainly a Souval frame

Danke !

The dipping 3 is not always THE golden rule for wartime or not.
I have a wartime Souval with L/58 mark (pinback) that hasn't got a dipping 3.

I agree with Ben

Is it rule for crosses with L/58 mark only?

Hi Kirill,

no, not just the marked ones.
Just wanted to make clear that there are wartime Souvals that don't have the dipping 3
