[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 294289, member: 85"]Might have to do with your import laws. Here in the US the McKinley Act was enacted in 1891 requiring country of origin. Many items from Japan were just marked Foreign. I never saw any German items marked that way. "Made in" had to be added to country of origin in I believe it was 1921. (I'm not positive on 1921 as the year, that needs to be checked.) BTW Those are absolutely stunning! ! ![/QUOTE]
