Thanks Bahner



In addition, I had looked at the old logo but it did not look like it

I just had to look at this site.

Thanks again

Hi all,

Why has he been on this site since 1967 ??

Should not that be since 1895 ??

Hi Dendriet,

Gottlieb Kurz 1895-1967
Arthur Möhrle 1967-present

See: http://www.925-1000.com/Fgerman_marks_a1884_5.html

Hi,
They claim family owned business since 1895 but the mark ‚‚AD‚‚ was used since 1967. Prior to that the same mark was used by Gottlieb Kurz (‚‚GK‚‚).
I cannot find the connection, but that`s what you find elsewhere (old silver with ``GK``) and ``AD`` after 1967.

Hallo Trev and AG2012,

Ah….. so it's family of each other, so that's solved.
Forgiveness is human.

Now a response to the AG2012 statement.
I can not find the connection, to the mark ‘’ AD’’

Is that also family or is that a mistake too? :)))

Hello again,
Gottlieb Kurz Founded - 1895
Succeeded by Arthur Möhrle in 1967

I do not know what exactly happened in 1967 in regard of succession or possible family ties, but new owners continued using the mark and``GK`` was changed to ``AM`` in 1967.
Hoping it`s clear now.
Regards

Hi AG2012
