Could someone please tell me what the World War I manufacturers initials BMC (on a No.80 fuze) and ALCO (on a No.85 fuze) stand for ?
Many thanks,

Monograms

ALCO is the American Locomotive Company or one of its subsidiaries. I cannot remember who BMC were but I have lent my list of monograms to TimG so he should be able to tell you.

Hello Jean Paul and TonyE,

My mistake, they are not British manufacturer's, as I assumed. :tinysmile_shy_t:

Many thanks for your help in identifying the two manufacturer's initials.

Cheers,

Jason

They are British in the sense that both were supplied on British contract in WWI.
