Hello everyone,

Something has been nagging at me for a long time, specifically that there is not a book on Simson's. However, to get smart on Simson's I believe that you have to find out as much information as you can, plus look at a lot of them. I have one Simson, a re-blue, but the markings are all sharp.

I have searched on the two forums and gathered information on Simson's, but was wondering if you guys have, or you guys knew of a collector who had 1, 2 or 30 Simson's? I know this isn't an easy task, and feel that by taking as many pictures of assorted, unmolested Simson's, I could get a real feel for them.

I have e-mailed all the Luger collectors I know, and if anyone has a Simson they'd like me to study via pictures, in person, etc., write me! (note; I e-mail some of the guys, and I think I used OLD email addys, so if I missed you, SORRY!!)

I can keep it as anonymous or un-anonymous as you'd like; either giving credit or just having observed it.

Also, any tips and hints on Simson facts, figures or manufacturing information would be gladly appreciated!
