As to the issue of the RZM stamp on the early species of black tag.

Said tag is on cap on right here.

The RZM stamp is also faked, needless to say.

All far too droll.

Thank you FB for the name of the Maker.
The cap is for sale. I'm hoping to buy it..I'm just awaiting confirmation.

Cheers

Interesting sweatband sewing in that example FB.

The sweat band in question is obviously a replacement. The issue is the "RZM" on this early species of black tag.

[Friedrich-Berthold]

The cap with the last tag posted appeared on auction in the 1980s without a sweat band and re appeared for sale in the recent past WITH a sweat band. Such a thing will surely horrify many purists, but I am less frightened by it. I am not a perfectionist. The restoration was not 100% but it was better than some. The issue here is the RZM issue of such caps as these, which one sees frequently.

These things turn up more often in the USA than I imagined. You just need to spend a goodly sum of money to own one. Viel Sammlerglueck.
