I have a photocopy of a WMF catalog without a date printed on it, anywhere. Does anyone recognize the catalog and know the date of publication?

Front cover:


Back cover:


In the catalog, the flatware Modells begin with "B" (Augsburger Faden), then go to 26 (Empire), 29 (Efeu/Ivy), 34 (Würfel/Cubes), and 37 (Wellenband). This would seem to place this publication after the famous 1906 "Art Nouveau" catalog, which included Augsburger Faden, but not the other four, but before WWI because, after the Great War, WMF initiated a new numbering system: Augsburger Faden became Modell 1, Empire became Modell 1000, and the other three patterns were not resumed.

I'd love to have an accurate date if one is known.

Does the catalog have a document number? Most probably on the cover page inside or the last page inside? A small number, probably two digit numbers with lines inbetween? Such publications usually have publication numbers, and a part of the number resembles the printing year, and sometimes month. So if you find somewhere a two digit numer, 09, 10, 11 or so, this is most probably your year of printing.

No, nothing like that, I'm afraid. The first page inside the cover is an index, then it launches into the product listing. The last page is a price list for bronzing baby shoes, and the inside back cover is a price list for silverplating flatware. I combed every inside page to see if there was a date – or any kind of issue or document number – and there was none.
