    EK 1 W&L marked inside pin 100 with send home letter from "Doug"

    Really interesting letter.
    I bet the guy really was "burn up" when he had his EK1 taken.

    a nice cross made better by the history.

        Now there's something rare: uncommon pin for W&L, and what seems to be the EK2 (rounded) stamp underneath it.

        Like the note too.
        Best regards,

          I had to look at the EK1 a bit before buying because it seemed so odd. The way the corrosion matched the paper I was comfortable with it at that point.
          The pin almost feels 'chincy' compared to other EK1's I have handled... And the frame seems very brilliant or plated?

            Quit interesting marked brass pin and the letter also .

            The EK2 mark is special by itself and with a brass pin . The rare pin brazing has corroded badly over time which is to be expected .
