Thanks Chris.
Tad confused as in that thread kingsley did not show a Lambourne badge?
The examples shown were FN, Smith & Wright, Uniquip and an illegible plaque suspected to be Gaunt.
Like all British manufacturers of their era Lambourne & Co / Lambourne’s did not mark every single badge, no.
In fact during WW1 in general in was a minority of badges which were marked. There are a few exceptions to this rule which appears to relate to channels used to order / finance the badges.
As a maker Lambourne were notorious for the poor quality of their dies and workmanship. Most of their wares look positively wonky when stood up next to other contemporary manufacturers products.
Sadly the photos in this thread have gone kaput but just enough is visible to tease. The badge in post #2 does have a kind of wonky awkward look to the rays and crown shape just as one might expect with a Lambourne.
