Re: Need Help understanding engraving styles
Roger,
Thank you for the explanation and clarification. I have studied over a dozen catalogs in several languages from the 1920's and 1930's which advertised engraved ("deluxe" or "Luxury") Walther pistols. Most refer to the engraving simply as "rich" but a German language GECO catalog from 1937 offered three engraving options: "Ornamenten, Eichenlaub, oder engliche" Which I translated into Ornament, Oakleaf or English.
I have referred to your Glossary many times. It is packed with a great information. I appreciate your support.
Regards,
Earl
