Would you say (EB) was for Etablissments Britte? I'd like to see an image also. Theophile & Lambert, maybe with a brother-in-law, had to have a gunshop prior to 1896, when some sources including the Britte Company give as the beginning: http://www.britte.be/UK/presentation_historique.asp . Other info suggests that the engineering firm began in 1897. Maybe there were 2 entities? But at any rate the state of Belgium at the Great Depression made them decide to concentrate their efforts toward engineering and look where they are today.


Kind Regards,
