Wow! The title of that document would be a real point accumulator in a game of German Scrabble...

Wow. That is really cool. I see you have 4 of them. I will take one off your hands if you like. :D


Thanks for posting.

This is a replica from the original Bigram Tables used to cipher ENIGMA M4 messages with SHARK

This week I've sold 14 Bigram tables like this to collectors and ENIGMA owners. If someone is interested, I could make a few more. (100€ each)

All the best!

If I may ask, why the high price? I'm not doubting it, as I produce my own products myself and understand the price points that happen. A lot of consumers get used to low priced mass produced crap and expect that level of work/price from artisans.

What processes do you use to create the documents?

I'm a fan of Adam Savage's work in reproducing props and other historical items, and I'd be curious to know how yours are done.

Dear Gargamel,
Yes, maybe the price is a little high. The price of those 14 first folders that I sold was 85€ each, doing 14 folders at same time is different than doing just one.

The price is high because I have been taking special care on type of materials used, specially on the bigram tables itself. Bigram tables has been retyped -NOT PHOTOCOPY- About the folder, when in hands, the feel is absolutely convincing, it could be a real folder from 1940. I apply a laborious aging process. The whole process takes time and time means money.

Thank you for asking!!

Actually Woody, I was referring to the Enigma coding machines themselves with the documents included. :D

Very cool! If you haven't seen them. check out some of Adam's videos on Tested's youtube channel. You might get a kick out some of his aging processes he does.

Thank you Rockstar for the advise. I'm member of Enigma World Code Group since 2006. I'm the proud owner of an Enigma machine too, Currently I'm teaching about cryptography at High Schools around Spain during the whole year.

Thank you Gargamel, I'll check that Youtube channel.
