Opinion needed on PAB please

Something missed....

Damn, what a thread ! I was far to think such a makers mark would still be such a mystery today, and would bring up so many questions...

I wasn't too fond of the "delta theory" when I read it ; I too think that in this case, the stylised "D" would be the most important letter of the logo, something more like the maker's name.

But as far as I see things, the triangle surely represents a trilogy of some kind rather that a name's initial ; the three dots included in the logo even strengthens this idea IMO. Still IMO, the compared sizes of the two letters A and S here are for sure respectively for the first name and name of the maker (which is not a big surprise, given the theories expressed in the thread in question).

@Bruce: No, you did not. There is no confirmation for A.D: Schwerdt other than the fact that M. Tucker has found one of those in an A.D. Schwerdt named packet. As far as I know that remained the only one case.

Bruce, just using that name until we find out what the real one is.

Hope you'll succeed in that Messieurs, your obstination and efforts in the search of the truth is impressive and commendable.

(even if the reading of the thread in question ended with a slight headache )
