Yet another Gebrüder Merkel ATM(AUTOMOTO) has crossed my computer. This one is a Modell Nr. 210 w/ Sideplates. It was started in November 1929 and is a Kombo of 16/65 - 9X57R. All German Proofmarks on Boehler Steel tubes. What is most interesting is the Gebrüder Merkel Work Card for Nr. 17521. The scattergun tubes experienced proof w/ French Shotshells. The 9X57R chambered tube experienced proof w/ 3 grammes of Rottweil Blattpulver Nr. 5 and also w/ 3 grammes of French Powder BN3F.
Looks to have been commissioned by a Magasin Reims or Magasin in Reims. The Kombo now resides in Belgium.
Imgbox isn't working for now so fotos will be later.
Hochachtungsvoll,

imgbox still is AWOL so I am trying imgur.... ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/tHoxE9d.jpeg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/86yzapf.jpeg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/plQHwFM.jpeg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/dEmCi06.jpeg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/VdgA9H7.jpeg) I find the work-card most interesting as the Kombo is all German & Suhl made but caters to an end user fluent in the language of Française.

Great Info and effort there Fab500. So, Merkel re-established the link w/ >>ATM<< and continue after the War.

I would really like to know the full story on the Merkel - >>ATM<< story; like how the original connection was made, what relationship the two concerns had and how Merkel came to fill an >>ATM<< catalogue with their wares. I guess it would be like Merkel making something for one of the Kettners and stampin' their name atop but all the text is in the language of French and the platforms were pretty much a make-over to placate the French Hunters being the end user.
Serbus,
