Marke Dalluge

[stonemint]

This maker (which I believe is really a distributor) is somewhat controversial, because the logo is so heavily faked (primarily by Janke). I used to think that it was a fantasy maker, simply because of Kurt Dalluge and the "police-star" emblem. However, real ones do exist.

Here is the standard Janke Dalluge (pictured in Vol 4 of the Headgear of Hitler's Germany as a real SS officers):

Another Janke Dalluge if you're still unconvinced:

It is listed in the Wilkins book (Gary, where have you been?):

I believe this is WAF member Heinrich's--a real one, and a Marke Standard:

Pleating on Heinrichs--Pekuro had nothing on Marke Standard as far as that goes:

This one is on eban right now--has that typical Marke Standard pneumatic look with the high peak:

Textbook Marke Standard right down to the 1/2-moon stirndruckfrei feature and the ersatz s/b:

So, my current opinion is Marke Dalluge was a distributor, but not all Dalluge's were Marke Standards.
The key to the mystery will be finding a Marke Standard in a political visor, and having Derek C. unlock the secret with his RZM files...the hunt goes on!

Hallo Stone

I have attentively inspected this logo and I'm sufficiently convinced the real one shows the following peculiarities:

- the 12-pointed star is brighter than the inner circle;
- the monogram's types E and D substantially meet;
- with respect to the maker's name, the flat pole of the small L is longer than the corresponding one of the big L and nearly strikes the U type; the middle flat pole of the E type is finer than the others;
- with respect to the Hannover's inscrïption, the H type denotes a regular thickness; the twin N types are nearly closed downwards; the figures 2, 3, 38 and 39 denote a very distinguishable shape.

I hope this will be helpful for our search

IMO Dallüge was distributor who named his goods.
But Hannover was a big military city and im wondering about all the other real Dallüge visors.....

Maybe it's a good idea to share some additional photos of my Dallüge TSD visor. The fact that it's TSD already implies that it's a very late model...
