Here is a better shot of the tree.  I read the article and I think that this is potentially an very early boker. It is stamped BOKER on the front and has the tree on the reverse.  The tree does not seem to match up to any of the others in the publication.  If Mark Z is willing to take a look or needs other pictures let me know.  I greatly appreciate the help.

The best piece of advise on this article is to read it all.  Above where you see that BOKER in Block letters is 1930-1970, there is some information that says the German G4-G15 Boker was indeed stamped Boker on one side of the tang and then the lone tree on the other.  What confuses me is the block letter seems to be referring to a US built while the tree a German built.  Read the article, see if anything in there gives you a clue.  If nothing does let me know and we will see if we can get Mark Z to come by and take a look at the pics.

I have to agree with Dale, this is a rare old beauty and the pearl is holding up well

Is there anything stamped beside or below the tree ???

If not .. perhaps .. circa 1924~35 !?!
