Default PAB 25 ID needed

I have this one with a 10 day no questions asked return privilege. These are scans I made today. Left side of tank seems to have some zinc pest? Don't want to touch it in case it goes back. If better scans or pics are needed, I can try my digital camera. Please give it a good look over and ask for more if needed. I saw Philippe's comments on a previous thread and tried to get some scans of the areas he mentioned were important.
Thanks.

last one. I thought it looked pretty good except for the what looks like corrosion on the left side of tank. Then again, I am much better at LW awards and lack a lot of experience with Heer.
Thanks for looking and opinions.

Hi Bob,

Aside from the deterioration on the tank and the tank being attached slightly askew, I don't see anything wrong with this one. You've imaged the hinge and catch and I see all the thingd I look for. Some collectors will call it an unmarked JFS but I don't see the "rounded-corner rectangle" imprint around the catch, so personally I think it is an unknown maker.

Regards
Mike

Hi Bob,

I agree with Mike; looks good to me. There does seem to have been some damage to the very top of the cupola (doesn't look rounded), unless that's a factor of the way the image was made ...

Here's the "rounded corner rectangle" around the catch that Mike mentioned.

Best,
Greg

HI Greg,
By any chance, could you please post picture of the catch? If possible in the same view as on my picture.

Hi Bob,

Based upon these pics I agree with Mike and Greg, this is a good one. Amazing finish to the wreath.
