    IMG-20231121-WA0005.jpeg DSC_4048.JPG Hello, bought this fish at a flea market in the Netherlands. Can anyone give me more information about it? Also how old is it?

    Thank you.

    THIS may be helpful for dating the mark. IMHO it looks most like the 1944 mark (notice there is only one dot within the mark and it is located under SELB) but I don't really know Rosenthal. Hopefully, others will be along to offer their opinions!

    Hmmmm, I'm now noticing that the 1944 mark also has a dot directly beneath the crown and yours does not.
    Further searching finds a fish like yours HERE, and they claim mid-1950s.

    Thank you so much for the help! What do you think about the 1934-1956 mark? That looks pretty similar to me. Doesn't really narrow it down completely but at least I have an idea now.

    thank you again :)

    I think it’s fifties. Those lustre fishies were very popular then. Jema ones, for example.
