They are out there. I noticed a Zimmerman pinback on ebay a couple weeks ago.
I just didn't have the funds to pursue it.
I know I've posted my Zimmerman screwback before but I just love showing this one off.

I was addicted to the "Hokey-Pokey" but I've turned
myself around.
And it is well worth showing off Greg. It is a real gem to behold.

Greg,
That Cross is absolutely worthy of a parade around the Forum! It's a beauty!
In awe,
Joel
Thanks Joel.

Today I took full advantage of the STAY at HOME rule that quite a lot of us are being told to do to Protect our Health Workers and slow the spread of COVID19. They really are Hero's and have a very hard fight ahead of them.
So with this in mind I decided it was time to check on my Imperial EK collection and also check that I had them all listed. Whilst I had them out I also took a group photo and wanted to share it with the forum's Imperial enthusiasts. The photograph includes the following:-

I count myself very fortunate to have managed to collect so many EK's and I love every one of them. I still have a long way to go to collect every maker mark but I do so love the chase and you never know when you might find the next one.
I hope this brings a little sparkle of joy to you in this time of global uncertainty. Stay safe and stay well
Ken
P.S
If anyone would like to see a particular EK on this list I would be only to happy to show it off.

Very nice Ken!
You've come a long way since joining the forum!
Congrats!
Ralph.
Searching for anything relating to, Anton Boos, 934 Stamm. Kp. Pz. Erz. Abt. 7, 3 Kompanie, Panzer-Regiment 2, 16th Panzer-Division (My father)
Nicely done Ken.
Thanks for sharing them with us. I can only echo Ralph's words and add
that you have a bigger collection of Ek2's than I do.
I really appreciate your posting these now. I would have thoght that there
would have been an up tick in forum activity because of the virus but it actually
seems to be getting slower.
again-- great collection.
