BKA questions for hardcore BKA collectors

[PBR]

No, I would not agree, because just because I haven´t seen, doesn´t mean it doesn´t exist.

Hi Ludwig,

I didn't say that actually.
I said,"doesn't looks strange to you"?

Did you see the Hofmann Propaganda picture posted on the GCA forum?
Does it looks strange now?

T.K.

I am following many interesting discussions and much excellent research being done on the GCA by Thomas Bendixen and others. I am attaching a link to a thread on the research on Post-War BKA fakes that I am finding very interesting as it unfolds...the matter seems to have some way to go until it is concluded but is coming along with some great information and generally constructive debate.

I have also attached a link to a thread posted by Thomas Bendixen regarding the Hoffmann press release photo that he posits demonstrates a breakthrough in Juncker BKA badge study.

Could you please attach a link to the Hoffmann picture on GCA or elsewhere for those who haven't seen it, so they know what is being discussed? Thanks mate.

OK, so I misunderstood.
Very interesting at the GCA indeed! Thanks!

I believe that picture was posted here an couple of years ago.

Hi Don,

It may be, since that was published by Patzwall years ago, but NOT for sure the back-label with that date, as we can see now on the GCA forum.

This is the main theme of ours research now.

Don, I don't think there is anything wrong with asking for it to be posted again for people who may not have seen it, yeah?

I have the Patzwall book and am on GCA and so have access to the picture...but I know many people don't have the book so thought it would be a good idea...The recent picture (press release) is also clearer than the picture in Patzwall. This is why I asked T.K. if he would mind posting it here. I hope that Thomas Bendix doesn't mind me posting the picture here for educational purposes. I believe this is the one.

[Don D.]

Steve, I'm not saying anything is wrong with posting it here. I'd like to find the thread to review it and see what was said back then.

[PBR]

Thanks Peter.

Actually, IMHO; the most important thing of such picture is the date.

It has been always told that Juncker BKA was the Earlier model...but, since BKA was introduced on 30\01\1944, how's possibile that at the date of 26\02\1944 we already have a picture of a BKA showing undebatale late model features?

Now, this is the most important question that must be answered.

Thanks T.K., It'll be very interesting to watch how this unfolds.

IMO it´s more logic that the semihollow ones were produced after the massive ones.

Hello Ludwig,

Thanks for yours answer.

I don't catch your point anyway....

Did you notice the date on the picture?
On 26\02\1944 we already had the so-called AGMuK badges, so, if period produced, standing to your opinion, Juncker BKA had been produced for one month only (30\01\1944 to 26\02\1944).
This looks a bit strange to my eyes.
