If original, the holes in their backs should be tapped--repro do not "repro" the internal threads, for obvious reasons, in the molding/copying process, and either set would properly be real Bakelite.

These are certainly desirable, and unless I miss my guess, worth some bucks; more bucks, if my Kreighoff assessment is right.
The holes are threaded, didn't think to try and get that into the pictures.

So they would be appropriate for my '43 Krieghoff?
