Thread: Box of goodies

Well indeed, this is a rare example for sure. Haven't seen a second one so far.
Given the fact that the execution of the recommendations and regulations of the new law took some time and the whetstone quarries closed latest 1940, I would say the stone was labelled somewhere between 1938 and 1940.
The whetstonemaker Luthardt reopened his quarry at the Weinberg after the war again, but I think that the named assosiation - if still existing - had others things to do after war than recommending sharpening stones. The areas of eastern Germany have been under russian administration and most companies and also small workshops have been socialized during that time.
