      I don't like the look of this one.
      Here is my original example to compare.

        Hello

        Unfortunately, this one is a well known fake.

        As Ralph shows, the original Wilhelm Hobacher's look quite different.

        Best Regards, fischer

          Hi Peter

          Definitely a bad one as the other guys have mentioned.

          I think you will see at least one of those in the fakes thread for you to compare.

          Feel free to add the pics of yours to that thread

          best regards

            Indeed, common fake.

            Very nice original Hobacher in comparison Ralph, very nice my friend.

                Hi Peter,

                Sascha Weber's book on the IAB is as good as it gets now, but unfortunately missing quite a few makers and variants. Its a good overall reference though and I recommend it.

                Our member Fischer is currently working on a new book that will be much more complete, just not sure when it thinks it will be out.
