C & M
mark that appears together with a year on the products of several
manufacturers such as hand lamps and copper jugs. Most are in the
1914-1918 period of the First World War but this one, on a hand lamp, is dated
1897. It may indicate that it is materiel for the government but no museum
contacts can verify this. A contributor has said that 'C&M' is used to
denote a 'Copper and Metalsmith' in a guild. Confirmation will be welcome. |
