Close! I thought you were an expert Andy! Unmarked Deumer (cutout version), unmarked Deumer (solid version) with an old repair to the hinge pin and nice L/21. Very nice!

Best regards,

I agree, nice and original zinc trio
Two Deumers and F&B, one Deumer with most likely resolded hinge, as Norm has said.

Hi Hubert,

I don't think the hinge has been re-soldered. I think what we're seeing there on the photo is the hinge pin has been replaced by a wire that is bent over? (Correct me if I'm wrong.)

Best regards,

I agree with Norm. It looks the same on both ends, like bent and cut wire.

Side view would help, of course, to see the thickness of the wire.

Hi Guys, sure you are right, the hinge is not resolded just the hinge pin replaced. I did not take a close look and what I thought was excesive solder is just a bent of a wire
Cheers,
Hubert

Bullie,

Please reduce the image size when you download from an imaging hosting site. Far too large here.

I have resized it for you above.
