Hi Michael, you may need to look for a 3 letter code on the side wall, I do not know if they did this on tyres, but its worth

a try...just about ALL manufacturers in Germany at this time had such a code.

Example knt - Vulkan Gummiwarenfabrik,Weiss & Baessler AG..Leipzig W 33

Cheers

Hello,

I dont see such a code. However on the seal i can read PRITZWALK, its a german town.
