I forgot Behr, and I'm sure others. Hailing from Hamburg he filed for some type of trademark in 1902 under No. 56468.
1906 application for lockup -

Schilling forge mark with pre-1910 Suhl hallmarks such as the voluntary semi-smokeless test.
Unique Gustav Kersten.
One will see a Vierordt offering from time to time seeing Gustav Kersten and Vierordt of Kehl am Rhein had a joint venture but by 1910 the 2 experienced a very messy divorce. Vierordt of Kehl on the Rhein was peddling motorcycles about the same time. They were also in bed with DWM.
Sounds like they are asking a value about a multiple of 2 over their realized value but a unique action might warrant more.
Kind Regards,
