Tell 3 became the Model 75? Is it the same design? Are there examples?

There may not be any known surviving examples as even the author could not provide a photograph and uses an artists impression in his book. The existence of the Model 75 is based on the fact that it was listed in the post-1945 product range of Fa. Manteuffel and it is possble that is where Dieter got his illustration from. He states that it is identical to the Tell 3 in almost every respect, differing only in the markings and grip medallions and possibly screw heads.

Well I’m ordering the book, a challenge just to navigate the website. Got it to the cart and postage to the US, equal to the price of the book! Lol. Now the courage to press the buy button and hope it comes.
