Hello Ed
 
I don't recognize your lens front element  so I am of no help in locating 
Lens 52. It does not look to be very large  diameter so the aperture must be 
quite small.
 
The early zoom lenses in the UK had fixed  front elements of reasonable 
size and changeable back elements to change the  focal length. 
 
Attached are two pictures of a Watson zoom  first announced in July 1951. 
it is a 5:1 zoom with interchangeable rear  elements, one can be seen in the 
pictures. Alas the lens is not part of my  collection, It is part of the 
collection held at Alexandra Palace, the home of  the start of "high definition 
television" in the UK,  nice lens none the  less. 
 
regards
