So the 1930 Cat. has a pricelist for K Zildjian&Co., Konstantinople,....Is that just the way they spell it in German ?These are the only known Sonor Catalogue from the thirties in exsistance, so they must be set straight !!

The German in the Sonor catalogue page says:

REAL TURKISH CYMBALS (K Zildjian & co. Stambul)

Well-known, high quality, Importgoods, medium weight

"Stambul" and "Konstantinopel" were German names for Istanbul/Constantinople back in the days when the catalugue was printed.

That catalogue page is actually pretty funny to read... If i get the time i can translate some more if anyone cares....

That`s my big problem with them,..I can`t read it !!

Would K Zildjian spell it that way on the Trademark for the Europian Market ?

It`s a drum,.....Hit It !!

I understand now. Yes, I'd like to see that.

So now the Germans have changed those spellings?

Well yes,... Now even the Germans call it "Istanbul" flower

I attached a translated copy of the catalogue page. Hope you guys can read it, I hope it all makes sense, sorry for any spelling mistakes :-)
