New ek 11, Think it's a 100.

[brian c]

Hello all,
Aquired another ek 11 recently and it is unmarked. I have compared it to pic's of mm100 and am pretty sure that it is indeed a 100. I am anxious to hear your opinions. My ek 11 collection is rapidly growing. I will soon have to buy a bigger house.

Looks like a 100 to me. Take another pic of the frame with a little less light so we can see the beading near the swaz.

Hey Jim, Will this do? My picture taking abilities are lacking.

Yep, it's "100" alright.

[Jim Baker]

That's a 100 alright. I'll show you what to look for when I get home, unless somebody here wants to photoshop the crunched areas for him??

A couple of things you can see right off are the "hump" where the ribbon ring eye is attached, and the low 1939 date.

OH, I almost forgot, if it's a really nice 100, Shane will be peeking through your curtains tonight.... Then you'll know for sure!!

Look for the crunched beading on the upper arm, here.

Thanks guys,

Thanks, Brian

A very nice cross a 100 for sure!

Peter do let me know if you ever decide to get rid of that beauty you have in your collection. Every time you show it my mouth waters.
