I was recently able to add this decent example to my collection.
It took so long to arrive, that I had feared that it would not show up.
These are difficult to find in any condition. Unfortunately, this one is missing the screw back.

Great find Ralph!
It's a shame about the screw plate but I don't think I have ever seen one of these with the plate present. Should it be the "clam shell" type?

I don't think it would be a clam shell, from the finish on the reverse, I believe it would be more like some of the EK I screw backs.
A clam shell would have been larger than the spange, more like a Deumer.
I am curious also, I will do a little searching when I have the time.
