I looked at a few moulds today included in a package deal. Looked to be maybe 4 single cavity Lyman's in orginal boxes with the proper small handles. Also in the group was one T/C and one Lee mould. Most these moulds were in good shape with the handles being great.

In this box were three round ball moulds with handles. The blocks appear to be brass and in new condition. These were also in what looked to be orginal boxes marked LEM. What or which company is this?

Thanks,
Creeker

Did a quick search and it seems that they where out of the UK back in the 70's ,out of bussiness now, found a little bit of info on a .177 forum about them, made pellet and round ball moulds. Hope this helps a little.
