AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The version with the text "Brandenburg" (either with or without "S.M.S.") is considered to be the very first variant to be produced commercially.
Dating: This specific marking limits the production time to a shorter period, likely between 1904 and 1906, shortly after the patent was granted in 1903.
