Could be. My 10" one didn't have a logo on the body but one under the lid.

I now have a quandary.  (Pics soon as I can) Two pots beside one another and are identical in the plug and mold.  Same legs.  Identical lid.  No marking on one, the other having the oval Albion Maryborough marking.
Is it possible for the unmarked to be late 1800's if the foundry closed in 1907 after making marked pots.
I wonder?

Tempted & went to properties:

...

How common a name is Albion in Oz?  Or could there have been more of family into cast iron.  (N. American example, Wagner & Ware involved one or more marriages)  but the managers were all connected, pretty well.

Undecided
