1 with Bird Logo:
Prior to 1940 many companies used a logo rather than a number or letter code. The bird in the circle logo indicates that this drum was made by Dux, Markes & Co. The manufacturer Dux, Markes & Co. was founded in 1904 by Carl Markes in Lüdenscheid. At first one was a supplier for the company Walther & Co. Later they started using the code “hqu” for Markes & Co., K.-G., Metallwarenfabrik u. Apparatebau, Luedenscheid.
-
1 with 797 code and serial number:
The 797 code has been attributed to HASAG in Thuringia but the WaA83 is a Mauser marking. It is likely that since this drum is serial numbered that the amp corresponded to a Mauser MG34 it was issued with)
