Richard, That's very interesting about the B & L pre WWI corporate symbol. I'd never heard that before. I find such arcana fascinating. I can't imagine who the other license would be, if not Deckel. It wouldn't be Ilex, would it? Agfa also did the same as Zeiss and Goerz, acquiring the Ansco company. It seems the Alien Properties Act must have dealt them a heavier blow, at least up front, than it did Zeiss or Goerz.
