Re: Luftwaffe manufacture controll stamps / codes

I might say what I know. I have collected a lot of dataplate pictures from eBay, internet etc, and been privately forwarded a great many from a great collector.

In Ju 88 research on plates letters usually stood for first letter of factory, J Dessau, B Bernburg, Bd5 Bernburg, S Siebel, H Heinkel, OK4 Opel, H Henchel (logostamp with H) but I have seen source on internet on this matters, somone was asking on small stams and showing samples, but its not in "my favourites" list.

As you are in a WW2 parts rich country, I suggest you contact all your friends and start a research. Seriously. But beaware, fraud plates are out and about. Replica (fake) plates were made in Gardermoen some years ago.
