I would like to see a close up of the decal. It's not a Quist. But looks like a Pocher with key area's scratched out that looks forced.

Not sure about the liner either. Looks like there is green paint (?) on the inside liner band (3rd photo at the bottom by the chin strap bale). Maybe shadows from the photos? Can't be sure.

At this point, I don't feel comfortable. (SS decals are not my specialty especially without good close ups. So wait for others)

Agree with above. It doesn't look like there is much metallic silver content in the decal. Can't help but wonder about all that pitting in the paint? Also, my guess is that what was on the left side was a Heer decal.

Cheers,

Forgot to add. Chin strap looks bad as well.

Pictures added there is some green paint and grime on the liner band ,not sure about the tamp it looks like a Q and i thought the decal was also quist when i compared it? Whats wrong with the strap?

With no paint on the inside skirt that matches the green paint on the liner band, to me that indicates the liner was added. Even more so when looking at the over all condition of the shell and the much nicer condition of the leather.

Thanks for the better decal photo. It still looks like a Pocher to me. Runes appear to end above the break. With this new photo I do see the pulver. Decal might be good. I will defer however to others. These are not my strong point.

I cleaned up the markings and found out its a ef 64 lot number 8030 the first number is a bit fuzzy but looks like 8, so is the decal legit and good for this maker
