R is for Rotring

Just the easy ones left:

Z is for Zoukei-mura (manufactured by Rich/Hokushin Seiki i believe)

I think revell are mainly badger and thayer and chandler. I think the studio 1 is a querky brush, probably one of the last new designs sold by a british brand.

Should we include Sears, Mac Tools, Matco and Micro-Mark? those relabeled other brands(mostly Badger) as their own house brand.

There was an old brush on here a while ago with the needle arm through the top of the paint cup, possibly french... Anyone remember the brand?

That was possibly the Krautzberger I had. Was missing the needle and mount. Recently sold it and hope the buyer might restore it. Krautzberger patented that design around 1900 and in context of the problems inventors were trying to overcome at that time it was quite clever really.

Kingpin has kindly been updating the first post.

I’m starting to think this might not be possible after all, completing the alphabet. Learned about a few new brands and brushes though.
