Does this conform to a known original?

Dear Dave,
In my opinion all three are original. Last one is in all likeliness a B.H. Mayer.Cheers, Frank

Thanks Frank,
That was what I was hoping,I was unsure about one of them, just because I had never seen the example,

Yes, the first one is a bit uncommon but certainly looks believable and original in all ways.Cheers, Frank

Yes, Frank, That was the one I was unsure of, It came from the Estand and was in a box of stuff from the son of a vet, so unless one of the other IAB collectors know something else, I will have it as another hollow example,

Hi Dave,
Just my calculate guess on the second IAB you posted. IMO this IAB could well be made by the same maker of the second pattern Daisy PAB (the one with the straight gun).
The big hinge plate in combination with the block hinge was as far as I'm aware of only used by Hymmen &co and the Daisy maker both on there hollow zinc PAB's. Since we know the L/53 IAB that only leaves the unknown Daisy maker.
If you are able to post a close up of the upper part of the pin I could compare the pincer marks with the marks on the PAB pin's
Just my best guess

Philippe,
Here is the hinge, hope you can see something from thisDaveJComment

Dave,
2nd one looks the same as one of mine which I've always thought of as an unmarked L/53.

Txs Dave I'll take a look this evening.
Angus the design is related to L/53 in the same way the Daisy PAB's and L/53 are related but it's no perfect match.
Take a look at some L/53 IAB's in this thread
