Stark Coaster

Postby Peach » Fri Nov 16, 2012 6:16 pm

Hi all: I found an interesting German coaster on Wednesday and have not had any luck tracing info on the maker though it is thoroughly marked. Anyone familiar with "Stark"?
Thanks!

Hello, the unicorn is the maker's mark of Gebrueder Kuehn. Stark is the name of a retailer. As that name is not uncommon in German speaking countries, there is little chance it can be identified. Best wishes, Bahner

Thank you Bahner and dognose! I appreciate the info. The unicorn mark was so distinctive, I figured someone here would know.

Sincerely

Roberta
