List of Dianas made to circa mid-1930s.

 

I'm not certain of the origins of this information but it seems to be one of the most comprehensive lists of vintage Dianas available.

I'm not sure either what the dates next to each entry relate to? If it's a suggested introduction date for that model then at least some of the dates would appear to be wrong.

With thanks to Kurt G (who requested that the images be 'VDF branded')!

Dianas 1892 to present.

 

This impressive list was compiled from a variety of sources by Kurt, a former long-time employee of Mayer & Grammelspacher.

List of Dianas in Visier magazine.

 

This list was published in March 2002. It's interestingly specific about the introduction of various
post-WW1 models in June 1927. And I'm sceptical about it dating various pre-WW1 guns from 1913 onwards
(for instance the first, MGR-marked model 26 whereas it has the first model 27 as dating from 1910).
I'd love to know what sources they based this information on.
