help with maker please

[dovr]

Form the marks i can make out its 1899, the maker looks to be AB&C ?
I'm sure its a C and not Co
The B is perhaps a bit suspect could it be a N ?
Any help appreciated

Thanks

Hi,

Could it be either of these?

The choice is yours...

A Bromet & Co,
Jewin Street, London
Birmingham 1905 hallmark

AB&Co
Albert Baker & Co (1898) Ltd,
Listed in 1901 as tobacco manufacturers at 65 Holloway Road, London.
Out of business in 1939
Birmingham 1909 hallmark

Regards,

Thanks for that info

I had seen those two, but the AB&C rather than AB&Co made me wonder if it was someone else

does anyone know of other instances where the C is used instead of Co on some marks?
