Yes you are quite right that is a date stamp for March 1959.
reports of my death have been greatly exagerated
Yeah the one I remember had a full wooden handle too.
Drink good English Bitter beer and shoot safe,

The UK and the German are slightly different and have different threads. Sold this one for £20.

I've a mod2 in quite nice condition, I bought it from the sales forum on here, From memory I think it was £17 posted, It was quite a few years ago though so I may be wrong!
Another that I bought (Mistake!!) for a tenner, It's useless as the threads that holds the lot together are kaput!!
Top one..

Any Diana made in Great Britain was made by Scotland-based Milbro after the war, most but not all of them based on German Diana prewar designs.

In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
