J. Samuel, 19 Gerrard St., London W1 may have been military tailors.
(although I have not found details on this company)
I think your theory still stands.
What about dashedcircleskey?
this link lists them as tailors:

quoting: Tailors/retailers stamp to J Samuel, Gerrard Street, London. Stamped A 1918 (British War Department supplied to officers in the field).
Update on this link: I have not been able to find J. Samuel in the 1910-1914 London Post Office directory.
