According to my source, Karl Bocker Lederwarenfabrik is the code for eqf, not epf. Here is the link:

http://www.radix.net/~bbrown/codes_full.html

Also, Karl Bocker is listed as being in “Waldbroehl” Rheinland. The code epf is for: Interessengemeinschaft fuer Bergbau u. Huettenbetrieb AG, Betriebsgruppe Bismarckhuette, Huettenwerk Falvahuette in Schwientochlowitz, Kreis Kattowitz, later 'Koenigs- u. Bismarckhuette A G'.

My speculation here would be that maybe the code was handed down to successive owners or Mom and Pop operations during the war.

The code dkk is indeed listed as belonging to: Friedrich Offermann u. Soehne, Lederwarenfabrik, Bensberg.
