I used to have a copy of this book (pretty sure I don't any more) http://www.abebooks.co.uk/servlet/SearchResults?bt.x=0&bt.y=0&sts=t&tn=edinburgh+crystal The inside flap of the dust jacket gave illustrations of their various marks and a guide to when they were used. And whoops - just spotted Frank refers to this book further up on this discussion topic  :-[

Having looked at the jacket, I think if there is no E&L then it's post 1955, when the name was changed to Edinburgh Crystal.
