Perfectum factory, Schnepperter Strasse, Solingen, Germany - (photo courtesy Dr. Wulf Bramesfeld (2004))

Wulf Bramesfeld has kindly shared this photo of the Perfectum factory building in Solingen, Germany, where Griffon cutlery was manufactured. Wulf took this photo as part of a "geocaching" project. Read more about it at geocaching.com. Unfortunately, just as signs are routinely destroyed in New York, this one also seems to be in imminent peril. Wulf writes (March 2004) "Now it seems, that the writing gets lost very soon, they are setting up construction equipment. This was the right moment to take a photo to keep the image."
