Helmut,
Not sure what you intended with this follow-up message, but just to avoid
confusion:
You're right that British Lion Films Ltd was (re-)created in 1955 as a new
limited company when Korda went bust, but as you said in your previous
message British Lion as a company existed long before that. After it was taken
over by Korda's London Films in 1946, it still operated as a separate
company and in fact their logo appears on 1940s quads after that time in
addition to London Films. The Third Man quad being one example (though not the
apparently domestic Heritage one sheet just to be awkward!!)

Apparently, British Lion Films Ltd. was formed in January 1955, after the
owners of London Films encountered some financial troubles. I believe that
'Lion International Films' as a division of London Films existed before
that.
