Over time I have aquired a few, nothing of staggering rareness as only standard types were made in Canada.
But here is the first lot.
I stand to be corrected on my manufacturres identification of course and I cannot find CCE ?
I'll likely strip the paint and attack the plating on one example this Spring.

Fantastic Gordon!
I’d like to know the maker of that 100 Mk II fuze - M with two small Ts.

Here is another group ; Again identification subject to question & correction ~
The circle with double Xs looks a bit like the Westing House monogram.

S Ltd could be Sheldons Ltd, Galt, Ontario, Canada ? Or is it Steel Co, Canada as stated?
A nice display of 18Pr Ammunition.

I don't have a Sheldons on my lists. I have lists in an 1918 inspectors booklet which was damaged and another list.
But if there is a complete official list I don't know it.
 
Another group , I know I have posted some of these over time singly, but this time
I hope with more detail that might be useful in some small way.
One more lot to go of more associated types which I will put into the Trench Art section,
though none of it is trench art as it's all industrial wartime in nature.
