the compass set at my drafting desk has the marking

GERMANY

U.S. ZONE

it predates even west germany! i'm pretty sure the desk itself is even older.

i may perhaps take a photo sometime :)

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
