I had been looking for a good, clean and complete example for some time and consequently, when this example was offered I snapped it up straight away.

Any constructive comments and opinions are welcome and I hope the images might prove of interest.

Regards Richard.


Starting with an overall shot and the manufacturers label.

Thanks for the positive comments, I waited a long time to find the right example and I am very pleased with this one.

Is is possible to determine the manufacturer from the label at all?

Regards Richard.

The manufactor - code "bwz" stands for:

Auer-Gesellschaft A.-G. Berlin N 65, Werk Oranienburg

HI,

Gorgeous schwimveste.

About the producer, sadly Oranienburg was the concentration camp.
