Any Maybach Zeppelin experts out there? This Bosch FH12 was marked as such with the year 1933-1934. All the DS7/DS8 Zeppelin pictures I can find show distributors or two 6 cylinder magnetos. I know the Bugatti guys go crazy over FH8's but have never seen an FH12 before.

They must have overhauled a lot of SF4 magnetos at Kelly AFB after WWII, because I run into these decals on SF4s fairly often. Someone a while back during a phone call asked if I could save their decals during overhaul, which I said I could not as they are usually brittle and shatter. I can't remember who that was I talked to about that but this one today while breaking down one of my cores popped off completely intact. If whoever asked me about that sends me a message I will send it you, just cant remember who you were.
