Lambourne Manufactured
Continuing my research into badges manufactured by" LAMBOURNE" during the Great War, I am unable to determine if there are any "York and Lancaster Regiment" or "Tank Corps" that are marked on the shank "LAMBOURNE & Co BIRMINGHAM" (underscored "o"). The only examples that I have seen, although yet to own, are marked "LAMBOURNE'S".
Can anyone help contradict this finding? thanks, Andrew |

This may be what you are looking for. The 'o' is underscored but difficult to see. I am satisfied the badge is genuine. Trust this is of help Myles DSCF3577.jpg DSCF3581.jpg DSCF3583.jpg |

Andrew, great project !
There are, as we all know, two different stamps, I assume the first is LAMBOURNE’S / BIRMINGHAM and I assume that the second marks it's incorporation LAMBOURNE & Co / BIRMINGHAM the big question is when the change came ??? J |

Yes, I am trying to find which came first and if possible the dates the back mark changed. I just can't put the time in to do the research at present, which is a shame. If it doesn't get a response on this thread, I will open a new one, but can anyone tell me when "coffin" lugs replaced normal lugs on shoulder titles, or were they used at the same time as each other? Thanks |

Going by this advertisement from 1955 I would say Lambourne’s is later.
They may have dropped the & Co when they moved to Great Hampton Row in 1932 Paul |
