<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sunday silence, post: 2176281, member: 6808&quot;]I find this entire line of reasoning hard to understand. The data base I posted pics from says Edme Samson existed until 1969. THe&nbsp; pics I posted from that site show anchor marks both red and gold and it says these are from 1885 to 1920s.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is clearly within the time frame of the McKinley Act. I dont see why they couldnt have been in Germany in say 1910 or 1920 and had the anchor mark added after.</p><p><br /></p><p>Am I missing something? </p><p><br /></p><p>PS Thanks so much for the rest of the explanation. I knew some of that but I am just beginning so the &quot;made in Germany&quot; thing I did not grok until you explained it. Thanks again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
