Indeed the O/U is a REMO/Brother's Rempt example, who had at least one such lock-up patent(I think that is what is states on the flyer & I don't recall the variation with the Purdey nose) like Richard Schüler and I guess Brother's Rempt to have applied for it in the mid 1920s while Richard Schüler's patent was #1105574(German) being submitted in January 1930. In reading correspondence, etc., I tend to think that Richard Schüler was at the core of S,D&G's sourcing of Suhl and REMO might have played a part. I don't purport to be a Daly expert, and considering all engraving seems to run together the longer one stares at it, but I think both pieces are the work of Fritz Heimbeck. His scroll work tends to resemble oyster pearls hanging from the scroll. And I'm sure if Richard Schüler was the source for S,D&G's Suhl examples he attempted to retain all the former talent that had made the name Daly synonymous with quality. Can anyone make a stab at how many sidelocks and drillings that Lindner made?
I'm curious what the "K.Sl.S" is under the REMO model right above the "Reference 828"?
Kind Regards,
