Ek1 l/13 & dkig

[JamesT]

Good day

Both bad I think?

EK1 marked L/13 for Paul Meyhauer and DKIG.

[JamesT]

and the DKIG. It just looks a bit crude

Hi James.

Yes all bad im afraid,the Eki case is a repro too.I hope you were just asking and you are not out of pocket.

All the best,

EK is a good Meybauer but case and DK are fake.

[JamesT]

Thanks folks. I thought the EK might be good.

Not mine. For sale at a local auction. They got really shirty when I questioned the DKIG. They have got £400 - £500 on it and I bet it makes that. So someone will be out of pocket.

I might have a go at the Meybauer though.

Thanks again.

Are you sure the Eki is good! If others give it a thumbs up then ill have to read more books even after all these years,ill stand corrected.

On the DKIG ,well if it goes for anywhere near the asking price the new owner surely must question why!

What did the auction house say about the EK case,just interested how they defend its originality,its awful!

All the best

The DK imo is a post war Deschler, it has Deschler’s 57er set up.

I'll try to get better pics of the EK.

Auction houses do what they always do. It comes with good provenance from the seller and it is for the buyer to make up their own mind.

The DKiG are for sure a postwar copy

IMO the EK1 mm l/13 a good original piece ,but the box IMO not good ,need better a pictures about the box .

[Volksgrenadier 44]

James,let us know what they all fetch after the auction mate will you,i for one would be interested.

I will stand by my original feeling that all three pieces are postwar copies BUT ill be the first to say if that proves not to be the case (no pun intended)
