Imperial Eks

[Chopperman]

A few makers offer crosses with frames made from alloys other
than silver. AWS , Otto Schickel and P-L come to mind.

Deumer had silver plated crosses that the silver that the plating
seems to have been very thin and wore of the high points very fast.

I don't remember seeing a CD that was not silver. That would be a
very nice variation for anyone's collection.

Hi Guys,

Haven´t posted (or aquired) any Imperial for a while. But I resently bought this cased Godet. Nothing fancy or exotic as you guys posted lately
My first Godet 1 class
Cross is a standard flat Godet. Case is a little different though. it has no button or metal hinge. It is obviously an old box where this cross has "lived" for a long time (upside down) ! I guess it is a private purchased box. Any idea ??
MFG

PS the rust spot in the cover fits the spot on the cross, when placed upside down in box

Very nice Marc. You can never go wrong buying a Godet.

I´d say the case is fine. If it is UV negative and metal parts are magnetic, I woudn´t have any problem with that.

Here is another new one for me.

This one was sold by Friedrich Sedlatzek and he was nice enough to
put his name on it.

I have yet to identify the maker of the cross but hopefully in time, I can
find a frame match.

Very nice cross with slant W core. And nice marking, as Sedlatzeks are many times marked very faintly.

Congrats on a very fine Sedlatzek, one I still mis in my collection ;-)
Like this core type a lot :-)
