. LAG / evu Lippert & Arnold Metallwarenfabrik Grünhain Sachsen --------- Very rare example of Lippert & Arnold manufacturer at Grünhaim found in Normandy. This can confirm that the note Az. 65 a Nr. 3437/41 (8/VIII) from the 15th of january 1941 signed by the department "Technisches Amt" of the "Reichsminister der Luftfahrt und Oberbefehlshaber der Luftwaffe" ordering the establishment of stamping manufacturer code on the Wehrmacht Kanister was also applied upon its publication by this industrial (see the webpage about that note here).
This model announcement probably other rare 1941 cans productions carriers these three letters introduced by the O.K.H - Oberkommando des Heeres - and are quickly abandoned that same year by the industrials for their logo (Rene Letourneau collection).
The manufacturer code "evu" is inserted into the original triangle logo where are embossed the LAG initials in a circle on next productions (Rene Letourneau collection). < |
