Here's a SMF detachable chained Transitional 1st Luft.

I am of the opinion that these was a early short-lived, extra-cost option, offered by only the premier makers of SMF and Eickhorn. It was soon not available when mass production began. (just a guess, but many were not produced as few are ever seen). Note the DLV type large staples still used here.
Glad you brought yours up Barry. There is still so much we don't know.
