Thanks in advance.

It's got Souval frames and a brass core, without a 'dipping 3' in the date. Hmm.
I would be interested to see what Fabri makes of this one......

Hi guys
they are Souval frame and core but the back set-up was not used from this firma, it 's an Orth assembly.

[Adrian]

Thanks Fabri. I wasn't sure but was certain you would be able to confirm.

Thanks Adrian. I didn't remember that I have one like this, exactly the same, they are not so hard to find, here a pic.
On left a non magnetic Schickle !! :shok_yikes: .. ahahah in the true I don't know if it 's really so rare..

I have to add a funny story about this Schickle on single bar..
I bought it some years ago from D.Niemann.
When arrived, I tested it with a magnet, a powerful magnet... what happened ? I saw the magnet to attract the cross..
so a bit disappointed I wrote him and then I sent the single bar back ! Niemann aplogized and accepted the cross back.. BUT ..
BUT .. Niemann rightly sent the single bar to me for the second time (with some comments on a sheet.. ahah) because the cross is really non magnetic..
so.. I learned that the plate of the single bar is ferrous and if you test the bar with a good magnet, cross and the plate lift theirself
because the plate is back and lift the cross too... ahahah have you understood although my non perfect English ?

[Adrian]

Haha! So next time take the cross off the bar before the magnet comes out!

Haha! So next time take the cross off the bar before the magnet comes out!
