Come Along Markings

Can anyone identify the markings on this come along? It may be either Dutch, Belgian, or German from the information I have been able to find. The letters of the sides of the hallmark are "L" and "F". The F is hard to see in the photo. The chain links are machine welded.

Thanks

Ron

Hi Ron,

I also have this nipper, I received it when I bought a collection in Belgium many years ago, and at that time was told it was used in Belgium.

I have no idea what the marking could mean or for what company it could stand. My nipper is unmarked.

Best wishes,

Michael

Hi Ron,
Living in Belgium, I should know that marking if it was common but I also have an unmarked version that looks a lot like this nipper so I don't know what it stands for. Perhaps Jean-Michel can help you.

Thanks guys. I also have one without the markings. The only reason I bought this one is because it is marked. I found one other example on another collectors web site with the same markings. He thought they were Dutch or Belgian. I have been searching the internet but without any luck.

Seriousle Ron, ask JM, he might know. He's far more familiar with ancient local restraints than I am.
