Hello,

a friend of mine has this match safe. It was made by Kuppenheim. I cant identify the last two hallmarks. I have seen this mark on other pieces to, especially the triangle mark. Is this maybe the import mark for Birmingham?

Hello again,
Sorry,did not read what you wrote. The mark on the right does not look like ``delta`` for Birmingham, more like inverted ``V``Besides there are no ``F`` and sponsor`s mark. I think it was a retailer in Germany.
regards
