Mold history ?

[725]

My buddy has two molds that look very interesting to me, but I don't really have any history on them. I suspect they are older, but don't know.

#1 is a double cavity marked only with "K 311-1140". It's a spritzer type, gas checked. I haven't cast any, so I don't have precise data as to weight or size.

#2 is a double cavity without any markings at all with a sprue plate marked "Cramer 49 A". This one is a gas checked, round nose. Again, I haven't cast any of these either.

Was wondering about original application and maybe age.

I have a few Modern Bond molds that are marked similar to this. I would guess .311" diameter and 1.140" in length.

Modern Bond molds.................. Never had any dealings with them. It looks like a quality mold. Hope to cast a few and see what pops out.
