Gothic inspector marks
 

Could anyone direct me to a sorce for the Gothic letter inspector stamps used on DWM and Erfurt P08's?? My eyes are poor, and I can't redially make them out!

Thanx,

Look in the Technical Section of this site, then they are also reproduced in Costanza's book ($200-$250 used), and in several other luger books.

Ed...not the suffexs, but the Gothic letters on the right receiver of Imperial DWM's and on every major piece in Erfurts...Thanks Ed...

It is in several books, I am just unsure which ones, if I have time I'll look.

The typeface is called Fraktur. Here's a link: http://www.library.yale.edu/catalogi...ic/fraktur.htm

Thanks Dwight....that was what I was looking for!
I thought these letters were Gothic. This will help me ID P08's.
