Looking for some more continuing education Liner marking
Quote from Guppy35 on March 11, 2023, 4:57 amIt's been a while since I've posted as the real life stuff has kept me busy. I was looking at one of the two LW M42s I have and I opened the somewhat worn and torn liner leather to see if anything was on the inside.
I have the books etc, but couldn't find reference to this marking and am wondering if the knowledgeable folks here could educate me on what I'm looking at.
And just for fun. Any thoughts on what the name is? G. Hensen is what I see.
Good to see you are all alive and kicking here 🙂

As for "Bo" stamping, that is the leather manufacturing stamping = Albert Bolz, Rudolfstadt.
56 stamping indicates the size of the leather (for a 64 shell)
